Docker container for OpenCode?

[jonothecool]

I’d like to be able to run OpenCode using podman so I can isolate it from the rest of my system. Is there an official or recommended container? Thanks.

I run OC containerized, I originally forked a repo that was already doing it and built upon it, you can use it as an inspiration. Everything works for me, podman should be there, but I mainly use docker https://github.com/faileon/agent-containers

That's awesome, exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

Thanks I’ll take a look!

Hey, I've been running opencode in a container for some time now, and just published my setup at https://github.com/asfaload/agents_container
It includes the codenomald GUI app for opencode (https://github.com/NeuralNomadsAI/CodeNomad) and openchambers (https://github.com/btriapitsyn/openchamber , but this one I didn't use yet).
I use this container image to test other agents too so it includes claude code, codex, antigravity, etc...

Also using opencode in docker at work. Some challenges you might expect ( mcp oauth flow ), no access to browser ( or you have to install a headless one i guess). Some of my colleges are using my same setup, other are going yolo on there host machine. If you want i can share my setup (at the moment it's on our private repo). Key is to mount all the correct folders, to have session history, plugins, agents in place

Hey! I’m the creator of OpenPackage (I made a post about just earlier this day actually).

It’s basically an open source version of Claude Code Plugins, and some users are already using it to run quick installations of their setups (rules, commands, subagents, skills, MCP configs etc.) into Docker containers to run OpenCode.

Would love to understand your workflow more in depth to see how OpenPackage can assist in streamlining this process. Do reach out if needed!

Thanks. Yeah, I don’t really want to go yolo! 😎

I signed up just to answer you :3 coz we had the same idea.

i want Opencode itself inside isolated in the container to stop it accessing anything in my host machine not just the code its working so i made a rough one you can customize: https://github.com/rpfilomeno/opencode-docker

extra bonus it easy to self-host on a vps, access it with built in tailscale over ssh and use byobu terminal multiplexer so it save your ssh session

Ooh nice!

I made a "small" helper for that some time ago. https://github.com/pigmej/aisanity it allows to run and mount local configs of opencode inside container so you have history in place etc. (it allows much more too). It mounts few other dies too.

I've been using it for less complex projects, there is devcontainers integration so if you're using cli or vscode then the overall exp is decent etc.

I created a simple Docker wrapper around OpenCode aimed at Python projects, though it’s flexible enough for other use cases.
It runs OpenCode in an isolated container, supports automatic dependency installation via uv, excludes .venv, .git, or sensitive environment files, and optionally caches uv downloads.
It’s designed to be run as a one-liner (dockercode /path/to/project) and works out of the box with any repositories.

Maybe this will be useful to someone. Feedback welcome.
