The AI coding agent built for the terminal.

# YOLO
curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash

# Package managers
npm i -g opencode-ai@latest        # or bun/pnpm/yarn
scoop bucket add extras; scoop install extras/opencode  # Windows
winget install opencode            # Windows
brew install sst/tap/opencode      # macOS and Linux

The install script respects the following priority order for the installation path:

1. $OPENCODE_INSTALL_DIR - Custom installation directory
2. $XDG_BIN_DIR - XDG Base Directory Specification compliant path
3. $HOME/bin - Standard user binary directory (if exists or can be created)
4. $HOME/.opencode/bin - Default fallback

# Examples
OPENCODE_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/bin curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash
XDG_BIN_DIR=$HOME/.local/bin curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash

It's very similar to Claude Code in terms of capability. Here are the key differences:

• 100% open source
• Not coupled to any provider. Although Anthropic is recommended, OpenCode can be used with OpenAI, Google or even local models. As models evolve the gaps between them will close and pricing will drop so being provider-agnostic is important.
• Out of the box LSP support
• A focus on TUI. OpenCode is built by neovim users and the creators of terminal.shop; we are going to push the limits of what's possible in the terminal.
• A client/server architecture. This for example can allow OpenCode to run on your computer, while you can drive it remotely from a mobile app. Meaning that the TUI frontend is just one of the possible clients.

The other confusingly named repo has no relation to this one. You can read the story behind it here.
