# opencode 1.18.6: branch cache and desktop provider/MCP refresh fixes

> Bug-fix release. Core stops one branch's repository cache refresh from moving another branch's checkout; the desktop app fixes stale legacy MCP state and provider lists that failed to refresh after connecting a provider or completing OAuth on V1 servers.
