OpenCode 1.3.2 has ~75 seconds startup delay #19197
Description
Description
OpenCode 1.3.2 has a consistent ~75 seconds startup delay on every launch, occurring after plugin loading and before bus initialization.
Environment
- OpenCode Version: 1.3.2
- OS: macOS Darwin 25.3.0 (Apple Silicon M1)
- Bun Version: 1.3.10
- Installation Method: curl
Steps to Reproduce
- Install OpenCode 1.3.2 via curl
- Run
opencode run "hello"or start TUI withopencode - Observe ~75+ seconds delay before the AI responds
Evidence from Logs
INFO 2026-03-26T01:37:57 +663ms service=plugin path=opencode-gemini-auth@latest loading plugin
INFO 2026-03-26T01:39:13 +75917ms service=bus type=* subscribing
The 75-second gap occurs consistently between:
- Plugin loading completion
- Bus initialization start
What I've Tried
- ❌ Disabled
autoupdatein config - ❌ Reduced plugins to minimum (only essential auth plugins)
- ❌ Cleared all caches (
~/.cache/opencode/) - ❌ Set
OPENCODE_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1environment variable - ❌ Disabled
oh-my-opencode,opencode-sessions,opencode-direnvplugins
None of these changes reduced the startup delay.
Current Configuration
{
"$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
"model": "opencode/minimax-m2.5-free",
"autoupdate": false,
"plugin": [
"opencode-antigravity-auth@latest",
"opencode-notify@latest",
"opencode-gemini-auth@latest",
"opencode-openai-codex-auth@latest"
]
}Timing Measurements
Average: ~1:28 (88 seconds), with ~75 seconds being the fixed delay.
Additional Context
- Network connectivity is working (HuggingFace, GitHub accessible)
- Database is small (17 sessions, 46 messages, 576KB)
- Cache size is reasonable (~532MB)
- No MCP servers configured
Expected Behavior
OpenCode should start within 3-5 seconds, not 75+ seconds.
Possible Causes
- Internal network request timeout (update check, telemetry, etc.)
- Bun runtime initialization issue
- Missing timeout configuration for internal operations
Please investigate this performance regression. Thank you!

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:
opencode-gemini-authplugin is enabled #14620: White screen on startup whenopencode-gemini-authplugin is enabled — the same plugin is present in your config and causes startup issuesIf your issue is specifically about the 75-second delay tied to plugin loading (and not just a blank screen), it may still be worth keeping open as a distinct performance regression in 1.3.2.

Just leaving this here for anyone with a similar issue: In my case it was a ton of plugins calling npm on startup for update check and my ISP having known issues with slow npm calls. What helped was using npm registry to find the closest mirror. Cuts down startup time by at least 5x.
Opencode would massively benefit from a more verbose startup for sure.

fix: bound startup-path network waits for offline hosts
fix: do not gate TUI/server readiness on plugin installs
