Referring video segmentation with heterogeneous multimodal queries---spanning text, audio, and reference images---demands both robust cross-modal understanding and precise spatio-temporal reasoning. We propose OPERA (Omnimodal Progressive spatio-tEmporal Reasoning Agent), a unified reasoning agent built on a single MLLM that performs dual-axis progressive reasoning via three specialized stages. Along the temporal axis, a Temporal Reasoning Agent narrows the frame search space through coarse-to-fine filtering to identify the most informative key frame. Along the spatial axis, a Distillation Agent establishes what to locate via cross-modal semantic distillation, and a Grounding Agent enhanced with GRPO determines where the target appears, with dense mask propagation completing the pixel-level output. OPERA sets a new state of the art on OmniAVS and Ref-AVS and transfers zero-shot to standard referring video segmentation benchmarks.
