Install opencode on macOS, Linux, or Windows
getting started
// what it does
The curl script auto-detects your OS and drops the opencode binary in a local bin directory (override with OPENCODE_INSTALL_DIR). npm i -g opencode-ai works anywhere Node runs, including Windows, and brew install anomalyco/tap/opencode tracks releases faster than the plain homebrew-core opencode formula. All paths install the same binary and self-update afterward.
// shell
$ curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash$ npm i -g opencode-ai@latest$ brew install anomalyco/tap/opencode// gotcha
The npm package is opencode-ai, not opencode — the bare opencode name is a different, unrelated package. If your distro ships an old build, prefer the curl script or the anomalyco tap over the slower system package.
