opencode

A skill that delegates coding work and pull-request reviews to the OpenCode command-line tool. OpenCode is an open-source AI coding agent that can work through a terminal.

In plain words
What is it for?
Implementing features, refactoring code, reviewing pull requests, running long coding sessions, and splitting independent tasks across isolated workspaces. OpenCode must be installed and authenticated.
Why use it?
It provides another coding worker for implementation, refactoring, review, and longer tasks. It can also support parallel work in separate working directories when the setup allows it.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

opencode scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

80% identical to opencode — 24 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 220 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

OpenCode CLI

Use OpenCode as an autonomous coding worker orchestrated by Hermes terminal/process tools. OpenCode is a provider-agnostic, open-source AI coding agent with a TUI and CLI.

When to Use

  • User explicitly asks to use OpenCode
  • You want an external coding agent to implement/refactor/review code
  • You need long-running coding sessions with progress checks
  • You want parallel task execution in isolated workdirs/worktrees

Prerequisites

  • OpenCode installed: npm i -g opencode-ai@latest or brew install anomalyco/tap/opencode
  • Auth configured: opencode auth login or set provider env vars (OPENROUTER_API_KEY, etc.)
  • Verify: opencode auth list should show at least one provider
  • Git repository for code tasks (recommended)
  • pty=true for interactive TUI sessions

Binary Resolution (Important)

Shell environments may resolve different OpenCode binaries. If behavior differs between your terminal and Hermes, check:

terminal(command="which -a opencode")
terminal(command="opencode --version")

If needed, pin an explicit binary path:

terminal(command="$HOME/.opencode/bin/opencode run '...'", workdir="~/project", pty=true)

One-Shot Tasks

Use opencode run for bounded, non-interactive tasks:

terminal(command="opencode run 'Add retry logic to API calls and update tests'", workdir="~/project")

Attach context files with -f:

terminal(command="opencode run 'Review this config for security issues' -f config.yaml -f .env.example", workdir="~/project")

Show model thinking with --thinking:

terminal(command="opencode run 'Debug why tests fail in CI' --thinking", workdir="~/project")

Force a specific model:

terminal(command="opencode run 'Refactor auth module' --model openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4", workdir="~/project")

Interactive Sessions (Background)

For iterative work requiring multiple exchanges, start the TUI in background:

terminal(command="opencode", workdir="~/project", background=true, pty=true)
# Returns session_id

# Send a prompt
process(action="submit", session_id="<id>", data="Implement OAuth refresh flow and add tests")

# Monitor progress
process(action="poll", session_id="<id>")
process(action="log", session_id="<id>")

# Send follow-up input
process(action="submit", session_id="<id>", data="Now add error handling for token expiry")

# Exit cleanly — Ctrl+C
process(action="write", session_id="<id>", data="\x03")
# Or just kill the process
process(action="kill", session_id="<id>")

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

opencode is a skill published in the GitHub repository john-data-chen/hermes-agent-backup (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 15 tokens to every session and 1,840 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 80% identical to opencode, differing in 24 lines, and is treated as a copy.
