OpenCode CLI

Terminal-based AI coding agent supporting multiple LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, local models). Features a TUI for interactive use and run command for automation.

Detect Installation

which opencode  # should return a path
opencode --version

Install

# Recommended (automated)
curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash

# npm
npm install -g opencode-ai

# Homebrew (macOS/Linux)
brew install anomalyco/tap/opencode

# pnpm
pnpm install -g opencode-ai

Requires API keys for your chosen LLM provider (configured via /init on first run).

Non-Interactive Usage (run)

For programmatic invocation from Research-Claw, use opencode run:

# Basic non-interactive execution
opencode run "Refactor the auth module to use dependency injection"

# With model selection (provider/model format)
opencode run -m anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514 "Fix all type errors"

# Attach files for context
opencode run -f src/config.ts -f README.md "Update the config schema"

# JSON output for parsing
opencode run --format json "List all exported functions"

# Continue a previous session
opencode run -c "Now add tests for what you just implemented"

# Continue a specific session
opencode run -s <session-id> "Fix the remaining issues"

Research-Claw exec Patterns

# Delegate a complex coding task
exec("opencode run -m anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514 'Implement the feature described in TODO.md'")

# With file attachments for context
exec("opencode run -f README.md -f src/schema.ts 'Add validation based on the schema'")

# JSON output for structured results
exec("opencode run --format json 'List all API endpoints in this project'")

# Using persistent server for multiple tasks
exec("opencode run --attach http://localhost:4096 'Run the test suite and fix failures'")
