#### Installation Directory
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# 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
|
|
```

|
### Agents
|
|
|
|
OpenCode includes two built-in agents you can switch between,
|
|
you can switch between these using the `Tab` key.
|
|
|
|
- **build** - Default, full access agent for development work
|
|
- **plan** - Read-only agent for analysis and code exploration
|
|
- Denies file edits by default
|
|
- Asks permission before running bash commands
|
|
- Ideal for exploring unfamiliar codebases or planning changes
|
|
|
|
Also, included is a **general** subagent for complex searches and multi-step tasks.
|
|
This is used internally and can be invoked using `@general` in messages.
|
|
|
|

### Building on OpenCode
|
|
|
|
If you are working on a project that's related to OpenCode and is using "opencode" as a part of its name; for example, "opencode-dashboard" or "opencode-mobile", please add a note to your README to clarify that it is not built by the OpenCode team and is not affiliated with us in any way.

### FAQ
|
|
|
|
#### How is this different than Claude Code?
|
|
|
|
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 we recommend the models we provide through [OpenCode Zen](https://opencode.ai/zen); OpenCode can be used with Claude, 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](https://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.
|
|
|
|
#### What's the other repo?
|
|
|
|
The other confusingly named repo has no relation to this one. You can [read the story behind it here](https://x.com/thdxr/status/1933561254481666466).
