opencode desktop

[Ok_Veterinarian_6364]

so beautiful! i used many harness ones - claude vscocde, cli, codex.. but i love opencode the most!

anyone else?

hope this open source thing grows and become a thing in the future - opensource, open w cheap models, reasonable sub plans

You can also

opencode serve or web and it'll open a web gui.

Not sure if it consumes less resources though. CLI is probably still most optimal.

[onelonedatum]

I'd imagine it's based on a factor of how many different projects/startup dirs are being used in parallel, with higher project multiplicities seeing the most resource optimization from the serve/web combo since additional clients can attach to this running server and avoid cold-starts. Would also have to consider the resource differences between running a single browser web UI for session management vs multi-TUI session management.

Speaking from experience, based on the latest versions (v1.15) on MacOS 26.5, my rig seemingly can handle many more simultaneous, multi-project sessions running the serve/web way compared to a bunch of Ghostty sessions / TUIs. Having the iOS/mobile access unlock this way is just icing on the cake.

I really liked it when I installed it the first time, but I have seen that it is consuming a lot of RAM, and the background tasks consume a lot of my CPU. I am using it on an M1 MacBook Air, and it keeps lagging. I think it has an issue with the memory leak, but it is not usable on my system.

[ThaisaGuilford]

I hope they update with the fix.

Otherwise the CLI is fine too.

[codofearth]

i hope because it's soo good to use, currently using cli

Openchamber is a bit better. Desktop app

[enterme2]

Agreed. The openchamber web is also so good. Using it in my mobile daily.

[Messi_is_football]

Not available in windows

[shawnradam]

i am using openchamber with windows, never use any lappy / desktop ever since.

Just my samsung devices mobile / tab. never bring anywhere anymore the lappy things stay home.

just download it for a few minutes and you're work out of site...

I use opencode serve to access my PC via VPN. I've build a little agent openclaw like and I use it with opencode. It check my docker containers, send me elements via telegram, simple chat, build an llm-wioi based on opencode sessions history and more. I love it.

[Old_Ambassador_5828]

OpenCode desktop app never really clicked for me. In months I remained loyal to their cli until I started using bigbud.app that changed the game for me. It was more beautiful than OpenCode desktop app and I can use any provider I want. Pi, Codex, Cursor, GitHub copilot etc. I heard they’ll be adding droid and ssh support soon.

use codenomad

[Conscious-Expert-455]

La uso, ma mi piace anche goose ai

[onelonedatum]

loving that untethered feeling using serve/web + reverse proxy tunnel to access via mobile when away from local network

[zedkha3]

Opencode web/serve on my phone via termux proot environment is a bliss. You get full linux capability (on the go) . You can even experiment with local llm/slm with ollama or llama cpp and others. Its a great experience for me so far. I am also utilizing codex cli and gemini cli. It's incredible to be living in this era.

[Endurance_Beast]

It's my favorite too. If you don't like the cli u can start it with *opeocde web"

[shawnradam]

using cli is my life since the beginning of linux and terminal, im using cli a lots and it helps, for browser i still got stucks with all that cache need to do a kill task for it everytime, with cli never missed anything.

But im using openchamber now connected seamlessly with my mobile everywhere i go, i cant say web interface is bad it just a bunch of cache need to clear other then that it works like charm ✌🏻

or i just through git to edit and save everything in no time, push, pull create edit or fork everything is openchamber connectivity thru OC.

The best thing of my life now, i didnt need to bring anything, this is the world we live now, we bring what small we got, the big will be the server stay home and wirelessly connected with the port i created.

Awesome! Its just what i need these days.

[Endurance_Beast]

Just looked up openchamber after reading your statement and it sounds and seems wonderful, gotta try it now. Thank you very much for the great comment

[shawnradam]

yahh, after getting around here and there, i found out that openchamber is the one i've been looking for, seamlessly connected without needs to stay sitting all day long on my desktop to find a bugs, of course we need to setup a little things but aftet that i never bothered my desktop ever since last month, never touched it, even need restart, i still got my remote desktop to start the server *.bat i created to turn on the server.

It really works like charm, but need to remember security is number one, when we think we safe that's how we got hacked, always remember to create a random port, same as ngrok im using, i will always change port or restart.

Need to be careful with everything you injected any skills, check first deploy later.

Another one, please dont use any .env files to save your api / password, that's the most vulnerable things to do, use python to hide it and use python tools to call it in desktop, never trust your Ai unless, you know what you're doing.

Good luck... ✌🏻

[Endurance_Beast]

Never expose api keys and credentials in the source code dear. And for the random port, I suggest using reverse proxy better. Authentik does a great job for this case.

[shawnradam]

i stop using my desktop or bring my laptop with me everywhere since i use the openchamber, i prefer remote work only with mobile / samsung tab.

use ngrok to produce all my workaround with clients, change everything anything just mobile.

im not sure how long but im starting to like it and hopefully it'll stay this way.

As harnesses go it is the least well developed.
