 ## Migration Guide
 
+### Migrating from permissions (plural) to permission (singular)
+
+**OpenCode v1.1.1+ Change**: The field name changed from `permissions:` (plural) to `permission:` (singular).
+
+**Before** (deprecated):
+```yaml
+permissions:
+  bash:
+    "*": "deny"
+```
+
+**After** (v1.1.1+):
+```yaml
+permission:
+  bash:
+    "*": "deny"
+```
+
+**Migration Steps**:
+1. Find all agents using `permissions:` (plural)
+   ```bash
+   grep -r "^permissions:" .opencode/agent/
+   ```
+
+2. Replace with `permission:` (singular) in each file
+
+3. Verify no validation errors:
+   ```bash
+   opencode agent validate
+   ```
+
 ### Migrating Existing Agents

+# Standard: Permission Patterns for OpenCode v1.1.1+
+
+**Purpose**: Comprehensive permission configuration patterns for different agent types  
+**Priority**: CRITICAL - Load this before configuring agent permissions
+
+---
+
+## Core Principle
+
+OpenCode v1.1.1+ uses `permission:` (singular) with granular control over tool access. Rules follow **last-matching-wins** evaluation order.
+
+**Why**: Granular permissions prevent unintended actions while allowing necessary operations.
+
+---
+
+## Permission Evaluation Order
+
+**Last matching rule wins** - Common pattern:
+1. Catch-all `"*"` first (default behavior)
+2. Specific overrides after (take precedence)
+
+Example:
+```yaml
+permission:
+  bash:
+    "*": "deny"              # Catch-all: deny all bash
+    "git status*": "allow"   # Override: allow git status
+    "git diff*": "allow"     # Override: allow git diff
+```
+
+---
+
+## Valid Permission Keys
+
+| Key | Description | Granular? | Default |
+|-----|-------------|-----------|---------|
+| `read` | File reading | Yes (path globs) | `"allow"` |
+| `edit` | File modifications | Yes (path globs) | `"allow"` |
+| `glob` | File globbing/searches | Yes | `"allow"` |
+| `grep` | Content/regex search | Yes | `"allow"` |
+| `list` | Directory listing | Yes | `"allow"` |
+| `bash` | Shell commands | Yes (command globs) | `"allow"` |
+| `task` | Subagent launches | Yes (subagent type) | `"allow"` |
+| `skill` | Skill loading | Yes | `"allow"` |
+| `lsp` | LSP queries | No | `"allow"` |
+| `todoread` | Todo list read | No | `"allow"` |
+| `todowrite` | Todo list update | No | `"allow"` |
+| `webfetch` | URL fetching | Yes | `"allow"` |
+| `websearch` | Web search | Yes | `"allow"` |
+| `codesearch` | Code search | Yes | `"allow"` |
+| `external_directory` | Out-of-project paths | Yes | `"ask"` |
+| `doom_loop` | Repeated identical calls | Yes | `"ask"` |
+
+---
+
+## Valid Actions
+
+- `"allow"` - Executes without approval
+- `"ask"` - Prompts user (options: once, always, reject)
+- `"deny"` - Blocks immediately
+
+---
+
+## Agent Type Patterns
+
+### Read-Only Agents (Reviewers, Analyzers)
+
+**Use case**: Code review, analysis, security audits
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  bash:
+    "*": "deny"
+  edit:
+    "**/*": "deny"
+  write:
+    "**/*": "deny"
+  task:
+    contextscout: "allow"
+    "*": "deny"
+```
+
+**Examples**: CodeReviewer, SecurityAuditor
+
+---
+
+### Write-Enabled Agents (Coders, Testers)
+
+**Use case**: Code implementation, test authoring
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  bash:
+    "rm -rf *": "ask"
+    "sudo *": "deny"
+    "chmod *": "ask"
+    "curl *": "ask"
+    "wget *": "ask"
+    "docker *": "ask"
+    "kubectl *": "ask"
+    # Test-specific commands (for testers)
+    "npx vitest *": "allow"
+    "npx jest *": "allow"
+    "pytest *": "allow"
+    "npm test *": "allow"
+    "go test *": "allow"
+    "cargo test *": "allow"
+    "*": "deny"
+  edit:
+    "**/*.env*": "deny"
+    "**/*.key": "deny"
+    "**/*.secret": "deny"
+    "node_modules/**": "deny"
+    "**/__pycache__/**": "deny"
+    "**/*.pyc": "deny"
+    ".git/**": "deny"
+  task:
+    contextscout: "allow"
+    "*": "deny"
+```
+
+**Examples**: CoderAgent, TestEngineer, BuildAgent
+
+---
+
+### Orchestrators (Task Managers, Primary Agents)
+
+**Use case**: Workflow orchestration, task delegation
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  bash:
+    "rm -rf *": "ask"
+    "sudo *": "deny"
+    "chmod *": "ask"
+    "*": "ask"  # More permissive for orchestration
+  edit:
+    "**/*.env*": "deny"
+    "**/*.key": "deny"
+    "**/*.secret": "deny"
+    "node_modules/**": "deny"
+    ".git/**": "deny"
+  task:
+    "*": "allow"  # Can delegate to any subagent
+```
+
+**Examples**: OpenCoder, OpenAgent, TaskManager
+
+---
+
+### Restricted Bash Agents (Specific Commands Only)
+
+**Use case**: Agents that need only specific bash commands
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  bash:
+    "git status*": "allow"
+    "git diff*": "allow"
+    "git log*": "allow"
+    "ls *": "allow"
+    "cat *": "allow"
+    "*": "deny"
+  edit:
+    "**/*.env*": "deny"
+  task:
+    contextscout: "allow"
+    "*": "deny"
+```
+
+**Examples**: ExternalScout, ContextScout
+
+---
+
+## Security Patterns
+
+### Always Deny Sensitive Files
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  edit:
+    "**/*.env*": "deny"
+    "**/*.key": "deny"
+    "**/*.secret": "deny"
+    "**/*.pem": "deny"
+    "**/*.crt": "deny"
+    "**/credentials*": "deny"
+```
+
+### Always Deny Dangerous Commands
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  bash:
+    "sudo *": "deny"
+    "rm -rf /*": "deny"
+    "chmod 777 *": "deny"
+    "curl * | bash": "deny"
+    "wget * | sh": "deny"
+```
+
+### Always Ask for Destructive Operations
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  bash:
+    "rm -rf *": "ask"
+    "git push --force*": "ask"
+    "docker system prune*": "ask"
+    "npm publish*": "ask"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Task Permission Patterns
+
+### Allow Specific Subagents Only
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  task:
+    contextscout: "allow"
+    externalscout: "allow"
+    "*": "deny"
+```
+
+### Allow All Except Specific
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  task:
+    "*": "allow"
+    "dangerous-agent": "deny"
+```
+
+### Ask for Orchestration Agents
+
+```yaml
+permission:
+  task:
+    contextscout: "allow"      # Always allow context discovery
+    "coder-agent": "ask"        # Ask before code generation
+    "build-agent": "ask"        # Ask before builds
+    "*": "deny"
+```
+

+- [ ] Dangerous commands denied (`sudo *`, `rm -rf /*`)
+- [ ] Destructive operations ask (`rm -rf *`, `git push --force*`)
+- [ ] Task permissions appropriate for agent type
+- [ ] Valid actions only (`"allow"`, `"ask"`, `"deny"`)
