Ebook details

Open-source agentic coding offers flexibility, but useful results depend on accurate context and deliberate control. The opening material introduces OpenCode across terminal, editor, and desktop environments, then connects cloud, built-in, or local model providers to a fresh installation.

Readers explore an unfamiliar codebase with /init, AGENTS.md, and fuzzy file search before separating analysis from modification through Build and Plan agents. Permissions in opencode.json establish safer boundaries, while focused instructions keep outputs grounded in the project. A coding challenge brings planning and implementation together in one practical workflow.

By the end of this guide, readers can steer OpenCode without surrendering judgment or privacy. Starter assets and completed project files support continued work across different models, repositories, and offline development settings.
