OpenCode is an open-source AI coding agent for developers who want an autonomous assistant to write and edit code, largely from the terminal. Recent coverage centres on a breach of part of its online platform, where hackers stole users' API keys and ran up charges on their AI accounts, with r/LocalLLaMA users advised to rotate keys. Other stories note a 'Continue' prompt issue in version 2.0.26 and tools such as Drawgent and KoboldCpp listing it as a comparable or connectable agent.
A user ran a blind test of five self-hosted agents (OpenCode, goose, Atomic Agent, Hermes, OpenClaw) on an M5 Max MacBook Pro, all using the same quantized Qwen 3.8 27B model in llama.cpp across five everyday tasks. All passed contact merging and log error counting; four passed bug fixing and receipt-to-spreadsheet, where two installed a missing Python library unprompted and one failed after asking for permission. Total times ranged from about 10 to 24 minutes.

Open source coding agent that helps developers write and edit code in the terminal
Hackers broke into part of OpenCode's online platform and stole users' API keys, running up charges on their AI accounts. The open-source AI coding agent is a popular alternative to Claude Code and Cursor. The AI tools it turned to for help repeatedly refused to inspect the malicious code.

Sphinx is an open-source Git hook that plugs into coding agents such as Codex, Claude Code and Cursor, quizzing developers on their diff before a push; wrong answers require another try, right ones let the push proceed. It runs on minimal tokens via OpenAI-compatible endpoints, and sphinx yolo skips checks with each skip logged.

A Reddit r/LocalLLaMA post claims the open-source coding tool Opencode has been breached and advises users to rotate their keys. The post gives no details and the report is still developing.

After upgrading to OpenCode 2.0.26, even competent bots seem to hang up and require repeated 'Continue' prompts, and the poster suggests this is not just their bot's issue.
Developer Shrivu Shankar argues that all SaaS businesses will end up as harnesses around a stateless LLM — the infrastructure, interfaces, context and state surrounding the model. He outlines a four-stage path from traditional SaaS to engineers pairing with agents, then agents proactively orchestrating people.
A user reports that configuring Codex CLI with GPT's help let local Qwen 3.8 Flash Next outperform GPT 5.6 Luna on a 3D Mario test and a real project, after local models had long lagged in serious work. The user also ported a search tool into Codex as a skill.
Drawgent is a single Rust binary that serves an Excalidraw editor, preserves the scene, and connects users' own Claude Code, Codex or opencode. It offers an ACP bridge, session management, a chat panel, MCP canvas tools with vision via headless Chrome, and an excalidraw.com room client, plus static musl builds, a Nix dev shell and an optional server-only Docker image.
KoboldCpp now ships a built-in Agent Harness, enabled with a single checkbox and positioned as a lightweight alternative to Opencode, Codex, and Claude Code. It has 9 built-in tools and a 2k-token system prompt, supports MCP, AGENTS.md, and context compaction, and can connect to any OpenAI Chat Completions-compatible endpoint. Recommended: 28k context, 8k generation, 12GB VRAM.
A developer released onPanda, an open-source tool for token-level editing of model output, reasoning and tool calls, supporting Claude Code and Codex plus an in-browser agent.
Ordewell turns one goal into an editable, typed plan of tasks where each task has its own runner, model, and mode and only completes when a unique completion marker appears. Plans can be rewritten before tokens are spent, preserve completed work, and support multiple runners (built-in Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode). Requires Node.js ≥20 and the TUI needs tmux.
Discussion on HN examines RTK (Rust Token Killer), which compresses terminal output to reduce tokens read by AI agents; despite README claims up to 90% reduction, JetBrains’ SkillsBench and independent benchmarks found little or no cost savings.
