+- `truncate` - Truncate tool output when it exceeds a configured threshold (default: `true`).
 - `max_lines` - Maximum number of lines before output is truncated (default: `2000`).
 - `max_bytes` - Maximum size in bytes before output is truncated (default: `51200`).
 
 These thresholds apply to output handled by OpenCode's shared truncation layer, including MCP and plugin tool output. Individual tools that page or cap their own results can have separate limits.
