Why is OpenCode better than Claude Code?

  Works with several providers (e.g. Github copilot or bring your own key). They offer a server and an sdk, so you can build all kinds of personal tools. It's amazing.

    Very interesting! What do you mean by personal tools? Do you have any examples of something you've built with this?

    Claude Code also has Claude Agent SDK (basically a wrapper around Claude Code) with a million downloads in the past week. https://www.npmjs.com/package/@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk https://www.npmjs.com/package/@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk

  I wouldn’t say it’s better, but it does have some nice features. Opencode has a web UI, so I can open it on my laptop and then resume the same session on the web from my phone through Tailscale. It’s pretty handy from time to time and takes almost zero effort from me.

  It is open source, to start with, and works with a lot of LLMs providers instead of being vendor locked into one.
