High concern about rg.exe

[apintorp]

Question

A file rg.exe under the path "C:\Users\prote.local\share\opencode\bin" start to read all my files.
why it is doing so? It is reading all the files on my computer, I was able to detect it because it start reading files from One drive and One drive notify me about the need to download to many files.

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

• OpenCode Desktop Windows ripgrep always fail #5727: OpenCode Desktop Windows ripgrep always fail
• Grep tool fails on Windows: CRLF line ending not stripped from ripgrep path #5946: Grep tool fails on Windows: CRLF line ending not stripped from ripgrep path
• no such file or directory, uv_spawn 'C:\Users\user\.local\share\opencode\bin\rg.exe' #3389: no such file or directory, uv_spawn 'C:\Users\user.local\share\opencode\bin\rg.exe'

These issues are related to rg.exe (ripgrep) problems on Windows systems. Feel free to ignore if this addresses a different specific case.

This is the tool that is being used by OpenCode to implement the Glob/Grep tools.

This might happen if you started an OpenCode session in your user home directory where the OneDrive app puts a link to the cloud-synced folder. If you requested the LLM some operation that resulted in finding files or patterns in files this makes sense.

Make sure to run the OpenCode sessions in the actual project directory.

I can get that, but the thing is that is looking into all the disk, and all the files at the time that Open Code was just setting there idle.
I don't know why the tool is looking into my vacations photos on a place not related to the path the project Open Code is set to work.

By the way, that just happen when I install the version v1.1.36

Do you happen to have a git directory in the user home directory? Please check

it's just a ripgrep alternative, it is used for all searches, greps and globbing. If it is reading random files either:

• you are running opencode in a directory that has those files as children
• opencode is calling it's grep/globs in directories that have them

[apintorp]

@rekram1-node thanks sir for the clarify what that file was about, and sorry if I didn't specify properly.
My concern was that it was actually opening files on folders that wasn't under open code directory nor the directory for the project.

[apintorp]

@goniz yes, it I have a couple of it under "C:\Users\prote"

it seems like models enjoy calling rg with arguments that make it consuming 24 CPU cores, read godknows how many files, and basically return never because it takes too long. (this is on Linux using the opencode bundled rg)

[DanceMore]

yeah, it's absolutely doing some dumb massive over-follow / over-traversal; possibly on ../ even ....

it seems to think my Rust code is in .....

.proton/pfx/dosdevices/z:/proc/2456985/cwd/examples/...

opencode is basically unusable to me with this issue; I'm gonna install an older version I think....

[goniz]

Guys, opencode scopes the commands to the working directory of the project.

If you run opencode directly on your home directory, those things will keep happening.

@rekram1-node maybe we need to add some warning or disclaimer when launching opencode on the $HOME ?

[DanceMore]

I am absolutely using opencode . in project directories and still watching it escape quite frequently, using all manner of tools and techniques.

[goniz]

Do you have examples?
In my experience it always asks for permission when out of project command / tool use is detected
