opencode-controller

opencode-controller is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zai-org/Synapse. It costs 36 tokens per session (415 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A set of slash commands for operating Opencode, a coding assistant used to plan and build software. It manages sessions, AI model providers, and Plan or Build modes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to open or select Opencode sessions, choose an AI provider and model, switch between planning and coding modes, and coordinate software work.
Why use it?
It keeps planning and coding inside Opencode and helps avoid using the wrong project session, model, or mode. It also requires confirmation before choosing a provider or authentication method.

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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-controller 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 1mo ago.

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.

What it actually says

Opencode Controller

Core rule

Clawdbot does not write code. All planning and coding happens inside Opencode.

Pre-flight

  • Ask the user which AI provider to use.
  • Ask how the provider should be authenticated.
  • Do not proceed without confirmation.

Session management

  • Start Opencode.
  • Open session selector using: /sessions
  • If the current project already exists:
    • Select the existing session.
  • Never create a new session without user approval.

Agent (mode) control

  • Open agent selector using: /agents
  • Available agents:
    • Plan
    • Build
  • Always select Plan first.
  • Switch agents whenever required using /agents.

Model selection

  • Open model selector using: /models
  • Select the user-requested provider.
  • If authentication is required:
    • Copy the login link provided by Opencode.
    • Send it to the user.
    • Wait for confirmation before continuing.

Plan agent behavior

  • Ask Opencode to analyze the task.
  • Request a clear step-by-step plan.
  • Allow Opencode to ask clarification questions.
  • Review the plan carefully.
  • If the plan is incorrect or incomplete:
    • Ask Opencode to revise it.
  • Do not allow code generation in Plan.

Build agent behavior

  • Switch to Build using /agents.
  • Ask Opencode to implement the approved plan.
  • If Opencode asks any question:
    • Immediately switch back to Plan.
    • Answer and confirm the plan.
    • Switch back to Build.

Completion

  • Repeat the Plan → Build loop until all user requirements are satisfied.
  • Never skip Plan.
  • Never answer questions in Build.

Output format

  • Show all slash commands explicitly.
  • State which option is selected.
  • Provide login links verbatim.

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.
