Overview
opencode is a command-line–focused AI coding assistant built to bring a smooth, developer-first workflow to the terminal. It aims to reduce friction during development by combining a user-friendly terminal interface with intelligent language tooling and broad model compatibility.
Core features
- Multiple agents can operate on the same repository simultaneously, enabling parallel workflows and team-based automation.
- Create persistent, shareable session links so collaborators can view or reproduce a coding session for debugging or review.
- Automatic hookup to the correct Language Server Protocol implementations to reduce model-driven mistakes and improve code suggestions.
- Access to a wide range of model providers (75+ via Models.dev), including options that run locally for privacy or offline use.
- Optional sign-in with Anthropic accounts to utilize Claude Pro or Claude Max capabilities.
- A configurable terminal UI that adapts to personal preferences and project needs for a more comfortable editing environment.
Collaboration and sharing
opencode is designed to make teamwork straightforward in a terminal context. Sessions can be exported as links for quick sharing, and multiple agents working concurrently helps teams split tasks or experiment without stepping on each other’s changes.
Integrations and extensibility
The tool integrates automatically with appropriate LSPs to help catch type errors, provide better completions, and improve the accuracy of generated code. Its Models.dev compatibility gives you a large ecosystem of model choices, including local model support for environments where data residency matters.
Getting started
Install opencode in your terminal environment, configure the terminal appearance to your liking, and connect any model providers you plan to use. If you want to leverage Anthropic’s Claude family, sign in with your Anthropic credentials to enable those models. Once set up, invite teammates to a session link or spawn parallel agents to accelerate development.
