Description
Feature hasn't been suggested before.
- I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
Describe the enhancement you want to request
When OpenCode runs in --format json non-interactive headless mode, permission_asked events are silently auto-rejected. The event is never emitted to stdout, so external tools (like cc-connect) cannot relay permission verification cards to users.
This forces headless integrators to choose between --dangerously-skip-permissions (allow all tools) or auto-reject all permissions with no user notification. There is no way to ask the user for permission via the JSON output channel.
The proposal is to emit permission_asked NDJSON events to stdout in --format json mode and accept permission replies via stdin, enabling headless tools to bridge permission prompts to external UIs.
