# AI SDK Provider for OpenCode
> **Latest Release**: Version 3.x supports AI SDK v6. Version 2.x is the previous AI SDK v6 line. For AI SDK v5 support, use the `ai-sdk-v5` tag (0.x.x).
A community provider for the [Vercel AI SDK](https://sdk.vercel.ai/docs) that enables using AI models through [OpenCode](https://opencode.ai) and the `@opencode-ai/sdk/v2` APIs. OpenCode is a terminal-based AI coding assistant that supports multiple providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and more).
This provider enables you to use OpenCode's AI capabilities through the familiar Vercel AI SDK interface, supporting `generateText()`, `streamText()`, `streamObject()`, native JSON-schema structured output with practical fallback patterns, tool approval flows, and file/source streaming parts.
## Version Compatibility
| Provider Version | AI SDK Version | NPM Tag | Status | Branch |
| ---------------- | -------------- | ----------- | ----------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 3.x.x | v6 | `latest` | Stable | `main` |
| 2.x.x | v6 | N/A | Legacy | historical |
| 1.x.x | v6 | N/A | Legacy | historical |
| 0.x.x | v5 | `ai-sdk-v5` | Maintenance | [`ai-sdk-v5`](https://github.com/ben-vargas/ai-sdk-provider-opencode-sdk/tree/ai-sdk-v5) |
## Breaking Changes in 2.0.0
This release upgrades the provider internals to OpenCode SDK v2 and includes behavior changes that can affect existing integrations:
- OpenCode request/response routing now uses v2 parameter shapes (`sessionID`, top-level args).
- New settings are available: `permission`, `variant`, `directory`, `outputFormatRetryCount`.
- `cwd` and `tools` remain supported but are now legacy/deprecated pathways.
- Structured output uses OpenCode native `json_schema` mode. Depending on model/backend route, strict object generation can still be inconsistent.
For production object extraction, use a two-step pattern: try `Output.object(...)` first, then fallback to strict JSON prompting + parse/validate.
### Installing the Right Version
**For AI SDK v6 (recommended):**
```bash
npm install ai-sdk-provider-opencode-sdk ai@^6.0.0
```
**For AI SDK v5:**
```bash
npm install ai-sdk-provider-opencode-sdk@ai-sdk-v5 ai@^5.0.0
```
## Zod Compatibility
This package is compatible with **Zod 3 and Zod 4** (aligned with `ai`):
```bash
# With Zod 3
npm install ai-sdk-provider-opencode-sdk ai zod@^3.25.76
# With Zod 4
npm install ai-sdk-provider-opencode-sdk ai zod@^4.1.8
```
## Prerequisites
- Node.js >= 18
- [OpenCode CLI](https://opencode.ai) installed (`npm install -g opencode`)
- Valid API keys configured in OpenCode for your preferred providers
## Quick Start
```typescript
import { generateText } from "ai";
import { opencode } from "ai-sdk-provider-opencode-sdk";
const result = await generateText({
model: opencode("openai/gpt-5.3-codex-spark"),
prompt: "What is the capital of France?",
});
console.log(result.text);
```
## Usage
### Creating a Provider
```typescript
import { createOpencode } from "ai-sdk-provider-opencode-sdk";
// Default provider (auto-starts server)
const opencode = createOpencode();
// With custom settings
const opencode = createOpencode({
hostname: "127.0.0.1",
port: 4096,
autoStartServer: true,
serverTimeout: 10000,
defaultSettings: {
agent: "build",
sessionTitle: "My Session",
},
});
```
### Model Selection
Models are specified in `providerID/modelID` format:
```typescript
// Anthropic models (Claude 4.5 series)
opencode("anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929");
opencode("anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5-20251001");
opencode("anthropic/claude-opus-4-5-20251101");
// OpenAI models (GPT-5.3 / GPT-5.1 series)
opencode("openai/gpt-5.3-codex-spark");
opencode("openai/gpt-5.1");
opencode("openai/gpt-5.1-codex");
// Google Gemini models
opencode("google/gemini-3-pro-preview");
opencode("google/gemini-2.5-flash");
opencode("google/gemini-2.5-pro");
opencode("google/gemini-2.0-flash");
```
### Streaming
```typescript
import { streamText } from "ai";
const result = streamText({
model: opencode("openai/gpt-5.3-codex-spark"),
prompt: "Write a haiku about coding.",
});
for await (const chunk of result.textStream) {
process.stdout.write(chunk);
}
```
### Conversation History
```typescript
import { generateText, type ModelMessage } from "ai";
const messages: ModelMessage[] = [
{ role: "user", content: "My name is Alice." },
{ role: "assistant", content: "Hello Alice! How can I help you today?" },
{ role: "user", content: "What is my name?" },
];
const result = await generateText({
model: opencode("openai/gpt-5.3-codex-spark"),
messages,
});
```
### Agent Selection
OpenCode supports different agents for different tasks:
```typescript
const model = opencode("openai/gpt-5.3-codex-spark", {
agent: "build", // or 'plan', 'general', 'explore'
});
```
### Session Management
Sessions maintain conversation context:
```typescript
const model = opencode("openai/gpt-5.3-codex-spark", {
sessionTitle: "Code Review Session",
});
// First call creates a session
const result1 = await generateText({ model, prompt: "Review this code..." });
// Subsequent calls reuse the same session
const result2 = await generateText({ model, prompt: "What did you find?" });
// Get session ID from metadata
const sessionId = result1.providerMetadata?.opencode?.sessionId;
// Resume a specific session
const resumeModel = opencode("openai/gpt-5.3-codex-spark", {
sessionId: sessionId,
});
```
### Tool Observation
OpenCode executes tools server-side. You can observe tool execution but cannot provide custom implementations:
```typescript
import { streamText } from "ai";
const result = streamText({
model: opencode("openai/gpt-5.3-codex-spark"),
prompt: "List files in the current directory.",
});
for await (const part of result.fullStream) {
switch (part.type) {
case "tool-call":
console.log(`tool-call: ${part.toolName}`);
break;
case "tool-result":
console.log(`tool-result: ${part.toolName}`);
break;
case "tool-approval-request":
console.log(`approval-request: ${part.approvalId}`);
break;
case "file":
console.log(`file: ${part.file.mediaType}`);
break;
case "source":
console.log(`source: ${part.sourceType}`);
break;
case "text-delta":
process.stdout.write(part.text ?? "");
break;
case "finish":
console.log(`finish: ${part.finishReason}`);
break;
case "error":
console.error(part.error);
break;
}
}
```

## Provider Settings
```typescript
interface OpencodeProviderSettings {
hostname?: string; // Default: '127.0.0.1'
port?: number; // Default: 4096
baseUrl?: string; // Override full URL
autoStartServer?: boolean; // Default: true
serverTimeout?: number; // Default: 10000
clientOptions?: OpencodeClientOptions; // Pass-through to createOpencodeClient()
client?: OpencodeClient; // Preconfigured SDK client (bypasses server management)
defaultSettings?: OpencodeSettings;
}
```
`clientOptions` forwards OpenCode SDK client configuration such as:
- `headers` (custom HTTP headers)
- `fetch` (custom fetch implementation)
- `auth` (token or auth function)
- `bodySerializer` / `querySerializer`
- `requestValidator` / `responseValidator` / `responseTransformer`
- `throwOnError`
- standard `RequestInit` fields (`credentials`, `mode`, `cache`, `signal`, etc.)
Notes:
- `baseUrl` and `directory` remain provider/model managed (`baseUrl` at provider level, `directory` via `defaultSettings` or per-model settings).
- If both `client` and `clientOptions` are provided, `client` takes precedence.
- If `client` is provided, its lifecycle remains caller-managed; `dispose()` only cleans up provider-managed server processes.
Example:
```typescript
const opencode = createOpencode({
baseUrl: "http://127.0.0.1:4096",
clientOptions: {
headers: {
"x-api-key": process.env.OPENCODE_API_KEY ?? "",
},
credentials: "include",
throwOnError: true,
},
});
```
## Model Settings
```typescript
interface OpencodeSettings {
sessionId?: string; // Resume session
createNewSession?: boolean; // Force new session
sessionTitle?: string; // Title for new sessions
agent?: string; // Agent name
systemPrompt?: string; // Override system prompt
tools?: Record; // Enable/disable tools (deprecated in favor of permissions)
permission?: Array<{
permission: string;
pattern: string;
action: "allow" | "deny" | "ask";
}>; // Session ruleset
variant?: string; // OpenCode variant
directory?: string; // Per-request directory
cwd?: string; // Legacy working directory alias
outputFormatRetryCount?: number; // JSON schema retry count
logger?: Logger | false; // Logging
verbose?: boolean; // Debug logging
}
```
## Advanced Exports
The package also exports lower-level APIs for advanced integrations:
- Runtime classes: `OpencodeLanguageModel`, `OpencodeClientManager`
- Validation/config helpers: `validateSettings`, `validateProviderSettings`, `validateModelId`, `mergeSettings`
- Logging helpers: `getLogger`, `defaultLogger`, `silentLogger`, `createContextLogger`
- Event/message utilities: `convertToOpencodeMessages`, `convertEventToStreamParts`, `createStreamState`, `createFinishParts`
These are intended for power users and tooling integrations. Most applications should use `createOpencode()` / `opencode()` directly.
## Error Handling
The provider converts OpenCode errors to AI SDK error types:
```typescript
import {
isAuthenticationError,
isTimeoutError,
} from "ai-sdk-provider-opencode-sdk";
try {
const result = await generateText({ model, prompt: "..." });
} catch (error) {
if (isAuthenticationError(error)) {
console.error("Check your API keys in OpenCode");
} else if (isTimeoutError(error)) {
console.error("Request timed out");
}
}
```
## Structured Output Reliability
When using `Output.object(...)`, the provider sends OpenCode native `format: { type: "json_schema", schema }`. This is the preferred path and works in many cases.
Some model/backend routes can still return output that does not parse into a strict object every time. The examples `examples/generate-object.ts` and `examples/stream-object.ts` intentionally demonstrate a robust fallback strategy:
1. Try native structured output.
2. Retry a small number of times.
3. Fallback to strict JSON prompting and validate with Zod.
## Cleanup
Always dispose of the provider when done to stop the managed server:
```typescript
const opencode = createOpencode();
// ... use the provider ...
// Clean up
await opencode.dispose?.();
```
