Opencode CLI

opencode CLI

Comprehensive reference for the opencode CLI (anomalyco/opencode) - the open source AI coding agent.

Interactive vs Non-Interactive Commands

Some opencode commands launch a full-screen TUI or another long-running interactive process and will block the terminal until the user exits. That is the intended behavior for human use - it only becomes a problem when an automated agent runs them without a human at the keyboard.

Commands that block on an interactive UI / long-running process:

• opencode (no subcommand) and opencode <project-path> - full-screen TUI
• opencode attach <url> - remote TUI
• opencode serve, opencode web, opencode acp - long-running servers
• opencode mcp add, opencode mcp auth <name> - interactive prompts
• opencode providers login (alias opencode auth login) - interactive picker / browser
• opencode github install - interactive setup wizard
• opencode db (no query) - opens an interactive sqlite3 shell
• opencode debug wait - blocks indefinitely

If you are running unattended (e.g. inside another agent, in CI, or in a scripted shell), prefer the non-interactive equivalents:

• Use opencode run "<prompt>" instead of the bare opencode TUI for one-shot prompts
• Pass --format json to opencode run and opencode session list for machine-readable output
• Pass an explicit query to opencode db "SELECT ..." instead of opening the bare shell
• Drive opencode serve from a process supervisor; don't shell out to it from a single-shot script

If you are an interactive user (or a tool/skill that knows how to drive a TUI - e.g. a terminal-multiplexer wrapper, an ACP-aware editor, an expect-style harness), running the interactive commands directly is fine and supported.

When in doubt about an unfamiliar subcommand, run opencode <subcommand> --help first - the help text exits cleanly and tells you whether the command is interactive.

Authentication

# Interactive provider login (opens browser or prompts for API key)
opencode auth login

# Login to a specific provider, skipping the picker
opencode auth login -p anthropic
opencode auth login -p openai -m "API Key"

# List configured providers and credentials

Configuration

Config Files and Resolution Order

Config is deep-merged in this order (later wins):

1. Remote config from <authdomain>/.well-known/opencode (org defaults, fetched at auth time)
2. Global: ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json
3. OPENCODE_CONFIG env var path
4. Project: opencode.json (or opencode.jsonc) found by walking up from cwd to the nearest git root
5. .opencode/ subdirs in project: agents/, commands/, modes/, plugins/, skills/, tools/, themes/
6. OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT env var (inline JSON, runtime override)
7. Managed: /Library/Application Support/opencode/ (macOS), /etc/opencode/ (Linux), %ProgramData%\opencode (Windows)
8. macOS managed prefs (ai.opencode.managed, MDM .mobileconfig - highest, not user-overridable)

JSON Schema URL: https://opencode.ai/config.json (draft 2020-12). Config files support JSONC (comments + trailing commas).

Minimal opencode.json

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "model": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5",
  "small_model": "anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5",
  "default_agent": "build",
  "logLevel": "INFO",
  "share": "manual",
  "instructions": ["AGENTS.md", "docs/*.md"],
  "permission": { "edit": "ask", "bash": "ask" }
}

Variable Substitution in Config

{
  "model": "{env:OPENCODE_MODEL}",
  "mcp": {
    "github": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer {env:GITHUB_TOKEN}" }
    }
  },
  "instructions": ["{file:./AGENTS.md}"]
}

{env:VAR} reads an env var. {file:path} inlines file contents (relative to the config dir, or absolute when starting with / or ~).

TUI Config

The TUI keeps its own file, schema https://opencode.ai/tui.json:

• Default: ~/.config/opencode/tui.json
• Override: OPENCODE_TUI_CONFIG env var

Keys: theme, keybinds, scroll_speed, scroll_acceleration, diff_style, mouse, leader_timeout, attention. Legacy theme / keybinds / tui keys inside opencode.json are auto-migrated.

Running opencode (TUI / one-shot)

The bare opencode command launches the TUI and blocks the terminal. Pass a project path positional to start in a different directory.

Start TUI

# Start TUI in current directory (interactive - use `opencode run` for scripts)
opencode

# Start TUI in a specific project path
opencode /path/to/project

# Start TUI with a specific model and agent
opencode -m anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5 --agent build

# Resume the most recent session
opencode -c
opencode --continue

# Resume a specific session by id
opencode -s ses_abc123

# Fork an existing session (requires --continue or --session)
opencode -c --fork

# Start TUI with an initial prompt
opencode --prompt "Refactor authentication module"

# Run without external plugins (for debugging plugin issues)
opencode --pure

# Bind the embedded server to a custom port / host
opencode --port 4096 --hostname 127.0.0.1

# Enable mDNS discovery (so other clients can find this instance)
opencode --mdns --mdns-domain opencode.local

# Allow extra origins for the embedded server CORS
opencode --cors http://localhost:3000 --cors http://localhost:5173

# Print server logs to terminal
opencode --print-logs --log-level DEBUG

Run (non-interactive prompts)

Use opencode run to send a single prompt and exit. This is the right entry point for scripts and CI.

Basic Run

# One-shot prompt
opencode run "Write a Python script that lists S3 buckets"

# Multi-word message (positional message array)
opencode run "Add error handling" "to src/api/server.ts"

# Pick model / agent / reasoning variant
opencode run "Audit this file" -m anthropic/claude-opus-4-5
opencode run "Plan a refactor" --agent plan
opencode run "Solve this puzzle" --variant high      # high / max / minimal

# Show provider thinking blocks in the output
opencode run "Plan it" --thinking

# Auto-share the resulting session
opencode run "Triage build errors" --share

# Set a session title (defaults to truncated prompt)
opencode run "Land issue #123" --title "Issue 123 fix"

# Run a custom slash command instead of free-form prompt
opencode run --command /test "src/api/server.test.ts"

Continue / Resume Sessions

# Continue the most recent session
opencode run -c "Now write tests for that"

# Continue a specific session
opencode run -s ses_abc123 "Now write tests"

# Fork the session (branch off without modifying the original)
opencode run -c --fork "Try a different approach"

Attach Files to a Run

# Attach one or more files (-f repeatable)
opencode run "Review this code" -f src/server.ts -f src/server.test.ts

# Attach an image (auto-resized per attachment.image config)
opencode run "Describe this screenshot" -f screenshot.png

Output Format

# Default: pretty terminal output
opencode run "ping"

# Raw JSON event stream (one event per line - good for scripting)
opencode run "ping" --format json

# Pipe JSON events to jq
opencode run "ping" --format json | jq -c 'select(.type=="message")'

# Capture full session as JSON via export afterwards
opencode run "ping" --format json
opencode export | jq .

Run Against a Remote Server

# Send the prompt to a running `opencode serve` instance instead of starting a local server
opencode run "Help" --attach http://localhost:4096

# With basic auth (defaults pulled from OPENCODE_SERVER_USERNAME / OPENCODE_SERVER_PASSWORD)
opencode run "Help" --attach http://server:4096 -u opencode -p hunter2

# Pass --dir to set the working directory on the remote server
opencode run "Refactor" --attach http://server:4096 --dir /srv/project

Risk-Sensitive Flags

# Auto-approve all permissions that haven't been explicitly declined
# (DANGEROUS - lets the agent edit files / run commands without prompting)
opencode run "Apply the patch" --dangerously-skip-permissions

# Direct interactive split-footer mode (combines run + interactive prompt)
opencode run -i "Start a chat about this codebase"

# Demo mode (lets you run interactive demo slash commands)
opencode run --demo /tutorial

Attach (remote TUI)

Connect a local TUI to a running opencode serve / opencode web instance.

# Attach to a remote server (interactive - launches TUI)
opencode attach http://localhost:4096

# With basic auth (defaults from OPENCODE_SERVER_USERNAME / OPENCODE_SERVER_PASSWORD)
opencode attach http://server:4096 -u opencode -p hunter2

# Set the working directory used on the server
opencode attach http://server:4096 --dir /srv/project

# Resume a session on the remote server
opencode attach http://server:4096 -c
opencode attach http://server:4096 -s ses_abc123

# Fork the session on the remote server
opencode attach http://server:4096 -c --fork

Serve (headless server)

Run a headless HTTP server. Other clients (TUI, web UI, IDE plugins) can connect.

# Start headless server on default port (4096) and 127.0.0.1 (long-running)
opencode serve

# Bind to all interfaces on a specific port
opencode serve --hostname 0.0.0.0 --port 4096

# Enable mDNS discovery so peers on the LAN can find it
opencode serve --mdns --mdns-domain dev.opencode.local

# Allow additional CORS origins
opencode serve --cors http://localhost:3000 --cors http://localhost:5173

# Add basic auth (any client must send these creds)
OPENCODE_SERVER_PASSWORD='hunter2' opencode serve --hostname 0.0.0.0 --port 4096

The OpenAPI 3.1 schema is exposed at http://<host>:<port>/doc. SSE event stream lives at /event (first event is server.connected).

Web (server + browser UI)

# Start server and open the web UI in the default browser (long-running)
opencode web

# On a fixed port / host
opencode web --port 4097 --hostname 127.0.0.1

# Enable mDNS, custom CORS
opencode web --mdns --cors http://localhost:3000

ACP (Agent Client Protocol)

opencode acp exposes opencode as an ACP subprocess speaking JSON-RPC over stdin/stdout. Used by Zed, JetBrains, Avante.nvim, CodeCompanion.nvim, etc.

# Start ACP server (typically launched by an IDE, not directly)
opencode acp

# Bind embedded server side-channel to a port (rarely needed)
opencode acp --port 4096 --hostname 127.0.0.1

# Set the working directory the ACP session runs in
opencode acp --cwd /path/to/project

# mDNS / CORS for the side-channel server
opencode acp --mdns --mdns-domain opencode.local --cors http://localhost:3000

ACP supports tools, MCP servers, AGENTS.md, formatters, and the permission system. /undo and /redo slash commands are not supported in ACP mode.

Agents

Agents combine a system prompt, model, mode, and permissions. They live as Markdown files with YAML frontmatter under ~/.config/opencode/agents/ (global) or .opencode/agents/ (project). Filename = agent name.

Manage Agents

# List all agents (built-in + custom)
opencode agent list

# Inspect an agent's resolved config (model, permissions, prompt)
opencode debug agent build
opencode debug agent plan
opencode debug agent <my-agent>

# Execute a single tool in an agent's context (debug)
opencode debug agent build --tool read --params '{"file":"package.json"}'
opencode debug agent build --tool grep --params '{"pattern":"TODO","include":"*.ts"}'

# Create a new agent file (the bare command launches an interactive form;
# pass all flags non-interactively)
opencode agent create \
  --path ~/.config/opencode/agents \
  --description "Code reviewer that focuses on security" \
  --mode subagent \
  --permissions read,grep,glob,webfetch \
  -m anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5

--permissions (alias --tools) is comma-separated; valid tool ids: bash, read, edit, glob, grep, webfetch, task, todowrite, websearch, lsp, skill. Default is all.

Agent File Format

---
description: "Security-focused code reviewer"
mode: subagent              # primary | subagent | all
model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5
temperature: 0.1
top_p: 0.9
steps: 10                   # max iterations
color: "#ff6b6b"            # hex or theme color name
hidden: true                # subagent only - hide from @ autocomplete
disable: false
permission:
  edit: deny
  bash: ask
  webfetch: allow
prompt: |
  You are a senior code reviewer focused on security.
  Audit changes for SQL injection, XSS, and auth bypass.
---

Optional extra prompt body in Markdown after the frontmatter.

Built-ins:

• build - primary, full toolset, default agent
• plan - primary, read-only; asks for edits and bash
• general - subagent, full toolset
• explore - subagent, read-only
• scout - subagent, external research

Unknown frontmatter keys pass through as model options (e.g. reasoningEffort: high, textVerbosity: low).

MCP Servers (Model Context Protocol)

opencode reads MCP server config from the mcp key in opencode.json. Tools from a server are namespaced as <server-name>_<tool>.

Manage MCP Servers

# List configured servers + connection status (renders a Unicode table)
opencode mcp list
opencode mcp ls

# Add an MCP server (interactive - drive only from a real terminal)
opencode mcp add

# Authenticate with an OAuth-enabled remote MCP server (INTERACTIVE)
opencode mcp auth my-mcp

# List OAuth-capable servers and their auth status
opencode mcp auth list
opencode mcp auth ls

# Remove stored OAuth credentials for a server
opencode mcp logout my-mcp

# Debug an OAuth connection (handshake + token introspection)
opencode mcp debug my-mcp

OAuth tokens are cached at ~/.local/share/opencode/mcp-auth.json. opencode auto-detects OAuth on a 401 response (RFC 7591 Dynamic Client Registration). Set "oauth": false on the server to disable.

MCP Config (in opencode.json)

{
  "mcp": {
    // Local stdio server
    "filesystem": {
      "type": "local",
      "command": ["npx", "-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/srv"],
      "enabled": true,
      "environment": { "LOG_LEVEL": "info" },
      "timeout": 5000
    },

    // Remote HTTP / SSE server
    "github": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp",
      "enabled": true,
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer {env:GITHUB_TOKEN}" },
      "timeout": 5000
    },

    // Remote with explicit OAuth dynamic registration
    "linear": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://mcp.linear.app/sse",
      "enabled": true,
      "oauth": {
        "clientId": "{env:LINEAR_CLIENT_ID}",
        "clientSecret": "{env:LINEAR_CLIENT_SECRET}",

        "callbackPort": 19876,
        "redirectUri": "http://127.0.0.1:19876/mcp/oauth/callback"
      }
    }
  },

  // Restrict which MCP tools agents can call
  "tools": { "github_*": true, "filesystem_delete*": false }
}

Models

# List all available models (provider/model-id, one per line)
opencode models

# List for a single provider
opencode models anthropic
opencode models openai

# Show extra metadata (cost, context, capabilities)
opencode models --verbose

# Refresh the models cache from models.dev
opencode models --refresh

Custom registry: set OPENCODE_MODELS_URL to a models.dev-compatible URL.

Sessions

Sessions are persisted in opencode's SQLite database at ~/.local/share/opencode/opencode.db.

List / Delete Sessions

# List recent sessions (table - default)
opencode session list

# Newest 20, JSON output for scripting
opencode session list -n 20 --format json

# Pipe to jq
opencode session list --format json | jq '.[].id'

# Delete a session by id
opencode session delete ses_abc123

Export / Import

# Export the most recent session to stdout as JSON
opencode export

# Export a specific session
opencode export ses_abc123 > session.json

# Sanitize sensitive transcript and file data before export
opencode export ses_abc123 --sanitize > session-redacted.json

# Import from a JSON file
opencode import ./session.json

# Import from a share URL
opencode import https://opncd.ai/s/abcd1234

Stats

# All-time stats
opencode stats

# Last 30 days
opencode stats --days 30

# Top 10 tools by usage
opencode stats --tools 10

# Top 5 models by usage
opencode stats --models 5

# Filter to the current project
opencode stats --project ""

# Filter to a specific project path
opencode stats --project /path/to/project

Plugins

opencode plugins are JS/TS modules implementing hooks (tool.execute.before, session.created, permission.asked, etc.) and optionally registering custom tools. Local plugins live under .opencode/plugins/ (project) or ~/.config/opencode/plugins/ (global). npm plugins are listed in the plugin array in opencode.json and auto-installed via Bun (cached at ~/.cache/opencode/node_modules/).

# Install an npm plugin and add it to project opencode.json
opencode plugin opencode-wakatime
opencode plug opencode-wakatime

# Install scoped npm plugin
opencode plugin "@example/opencode-notifier"

# Install in global config (~/.config/opencode/opencode.json)
opencode plugin opencode-wakatime --global
opencode plugin opencode-wakatime -g

# Replace an already-installed plugin (force update version)
opencode plugin opencode-wakatime --force
opencode plugin opencode-wakatime -f

Plugin Skeleton

// .opencode/plugins/my-plugin.ts
import type { Plugin } from "@opencode-ai/plugin"

export const MyPlugin: Plugin = async ({ project, directory, worktree, client, $ }) => ({
  "tool.execute.before": async ({ tool, args }) => {
    if (tool === "bash") console.log("[bash]", args.command)
  },
  "session.created": async ({ session }) => {
    await $`echo ${session.id} >> ~/sessions.log`
  },
})

If a plugin tool name matches a built-in, the plugin tool wins. For local plugins with deps, drop a package.json next to them - opencode runs bun install on startup.

GitHub Agent

The opencode github subcommand wires up the opencode GitHub App (github.com/apps/opencode-agent) so PRs and issues can be driven by /oc / /opencode comments.

# Interactive: install the GitHub App, generate .github/workflows/opencode.yml,
# and walk through repo secrets configuration (drive only from a real terminal)
opencode github install

# Run the GitHub agent locally (used inside the action runner)
opencode github run --token github_pat_xxx
opencode github run --event ./mock-issue_comment.json --token github_pat_xxx

Workflow Skeleton (manual setup)

# .github/workflows/opencode.yml

Database (SQLite)

opencode persists sessions and snapshots in SQLite. The bare opencode db opens an interactive sqlite3 shell - pass a query to keep it non-interactive.

# Print the database file path
opencode db path

# Run a one-shot SQL query (default format: tsv)
opencode db "SELECT id, title, updated FROM session ORDER BY updated DESC LIMIT 10"

# JSON output
opencode db --format json "SELECT id, title FROM session LIMIT 5"

# Migrate legacy JSON-on-disk data into SQLite (merges with existing)
opencode db migrate

# Interactive sqlite3 shell - drive only from a real terminal
opencode db

Upgrade / Uninstall

# Upgrade to latest
opencode upgrade

# Upgrade to a specific version (with or without leading 'v')
opencode upgrade 1.15.10
opencode upgrade v1.15.10

# Force the upgrade method
opencode upgrade --method brew
opencode upgrade --method npm
opencode upgrade --method bun
opencode upgrade --method curl
opencode upgrade --method choco
opencode upgrade --method scoop

# Uninstall
opencode uninstall --dry-run        # show what would be removed
opencode uninstall --keep-config    # leave ~/.config/opencode alone
opencode uninstall --keep-data      # leave sessions / snapshots
opencode uninstall -c -d            # keep both
opencode uninstall --force          # skip confirmation

Shell Completion

# Print zsh completion script (default if no shell flag)
opencode completion

# Install for zsh
opencode completion >> ~/.zshrc

# Install for bash
opencode completion -s bash > ~/.opencode-completion.bash
echo 'source ~/.opencode-completion.bash' >> ~/.bashrc

# Install for fish
opencode completion -s fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/opencode.fish

Debug Subcommands

opencode debug exposes diagnostics that mirror the LSP, ripgrep, file-system, and snapshot tools the agent uses internally. Most subcommands are one-shot and safe to script; opencode debug wait blocks indefinitely (it exists to keep the runner alive while attaching a debugger).

Resolved Configuration / Environment

# Show fully resolved config (after merge)
opencode debug config

# Show version, OS, terminal, plugins
opencode debug info

# Show all opencode XDG paths
opencode debug paths

# Print startup time in milliseconds
opencode debug startup

Agents and Skills

# Inspect an agent's merged config and prompt
opencode debug agent build
opencode debug agent <my-agent>

# Run a single tool in an agent's context (params accept JSON or JS object literal)
opencode debug agent build --tool read --params '{"file":"package.json"}'

# Dump every available skill (large output - auto-saved to tool-output)
opencode debug skill

# List historical / registered projects
opencode debug scrap

# v2 plugin/provider catalog
opencode debug v2

LSP

# Diagnostics for a file
opencode debug lsp diagnostics src/server.ts

# Workspace symbol search
opencode debug lsp symbols "createServer"

# Document symbols by URI
opencode debug lsp document-symbols file:///abs/path/src/server.ts

Ripgrep

# File tree (limited)
opencode debug rg tree --limit 200

# List files matching a query / glob
opencode debug rg files --query server --glob "*.ts" --limit 100

# Search file contents
opencode debug rg search "TODO"
opencode debug rg search "createServer" --glob "src/**/*.ts" --glob "!**/*.test.ts" --limit 50

Filesystem

# Read a file as JSON
opencode debug file read package.json

# File status info
opencode debug file status

# List a directory
opencode debug file list src/

# Search files by query
opencode debug file search Server

# Directory tree (defaults to cwd)
opencode debug file tree
opencode debug file tree src/

Snapshots

# Track current snapshot state
opencode debug snapshot track

# Show patch for a snapshot hash
opencode debug snapshot patch <hash>

# Show diff for a snapshot hash
opencode debug snapshot diff <hash>

Wait

# Block forever - useful only when keeping the runner alive for a debugger
opencode debug wait

Sharing

Sharing publishes a session to a CDN-served URL like https://opncd.ai/s/<id>.

# Auto-share a single run
opencode run "Plan a refactor" --share

# Set sharing globally via config (manual is the default)
# opencode.json: "share": "manual" | "auto" | "disabled"

In the TUI, /share and /unshare slash commands toggle sharing for the current session. There is no env var to disable sharing globally - use "share": "disabled" in config (or push it via managed config in enterprise).

Global Flags

opencode run-only flags worth highlighting: --format json, -f/--file, --share, --variant, --thinking, --attach, -p/--password, -u/--username, --dir, --title, --replay, --replay-limit, -i/--interactive, --dangerously-skip-permissions, --demo, --command.

Output Formatting

--format json (run / session list / db)

# Stream raw events from a single run, one JSON object per line
opencode run "ping" --format json

# Filter to message events with jq
opencode run "ping" --format json | jq -c 'select(.type=="message")'

# Tail the latest assistant response
opencode run "ping" --format json | jq -r 'select(.type=="message" and .role=="assistant") | .content'

# Sessions as JSON for scripting
opencode session list --format json | jq -r '.[] | "\(.id)\t\(.title)"'
opencode session list --format json | jq '[.[] | select(.directory|startswith(env.PWD))]'

The full per-line event schema for run --format json is not documented in the official docs. Inspect a sample run for the exact shape on your installed version, or stream the related SSE feed at GET /event on a running opencode serve.

Database queries (TSV / JSON)

# TSV (default) - friendly to awk / column
opencode db "SELECT id, title FROM session LIMIT 5"

# JSON - friendly to jq
opencode db --format json "SELECT id, title FROM session LIMIT 5" | jq .

# Recent project + session pairs
opencode db --format json \
  "SELECT s.id, s.title, p.worktree FROM session s JOIN project p ON s.project_id = p.id ORDER BY s.updated DESC LIMIT 10"

Common scripting recipes

# Most recent session id
SES=$(opencode session list -n 1 --format json | jq -r '.[0].id')

# Continue scripted prompts in the same session
opencode run -s "$SES" --format json "Now write tests" | jq -c '.'

# Auth status as JSON-ish (table only by default - parse with awk if needed)
opencode auth list

# Grep recent assistant messages from the DB
opencode db --format json "SELECT content FROM message WHERE role='assistant' ORDER BY created DESC LIMIT 5" \
  | jq -r '.[].content'
