OpenCode is an open-source, MIT-licensed AI coding agent for the terminal, desktop and IDE, with 75+ model providers. HagiCode is a workbench that runs OpenCode as an executor and adds proposals, commit tooling and multi-repo context around it.
OpenCode is an open-source AI coding agent that runs in your terminal, as a desktop app (beta) or in an IDE. It connects to 75+ providers, including your GitHub Copilot or ChatGPT Plus/Pro login, and can run several agents in parallel on one project. HagiCode is a workbench that starts OpenCode as an executor and adds spec proposals, AI commits, multi-repo context and history on top. It does not replace OpenCode and it does not sell models.
OpenCode already covers a lot on its own, including multiple sessions and a desktop app, so many solo developers should stay with it alone. Add HagiCode if you want each change to go through a written proposal, or to manage several repositories and several agents from one place.
| Aspect | OpenCode | HagiCode |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Open-source AI coding agent with build and plan agents, LSP support and share links | AI programming workbench that runs agent CLIs, including OpenCode, as executors |
| Interface and platforms | Terminal UI, desktop app (beta), IDE extension; macOS, Linux, Windows | Desktop app (Windows, macOS, Linux), Docker Compose container, Microsoft Store edition |
| Pricing and licensing | MIT-licensed and free; optional OpenCode Zen (pay-as-you-go) and Go ($10/month, as of October 2026) models | Desktop and Container editions free; Store edition free base, optional one-time TurboEngine purchase |
| Model and provider access | 75+ providers via Models.dev, local models, Copilot and ChatGPT logins | Hosts no models; uses the providers configured in OpenCode, or OmniRoute if you configure it |
| Parallel work | Multiple agents can run in parallel on the same project | Several sessions side by side, managed as named Agents |
| Spec and planning workflow | Plan agent is read-only and suggests changes; Tab switches to build | OpenSpec proposals: propose, validate, apply, archive |
| Git and commit handling | Left to you or to the agent's shell; sessions can be shared by link | AI-written commit messages with repository locking; Git management in the UI |
| Asking you questions | Permission prompts inside its own interface | Interactive questions are not available for OpenCode in HagiCode |
| Setup effort | One install command, then /connect a provider and /init | Install OpenCode first, then HagiCode, then pick OpenCode as the Agent CLI |
| Best for | Developers who want an open, provider-flexible agent in terminal, desktop or IDE | Running several OpenCode tasks across repos with specs, review and history in one place |
OpenCode connects to 75+ providers through Models.dev and supports local models through OpenAI-compatible endpoints such as Ollama, LM Studio and llama.cpp.
You can sign in with GitHub to use a Copilot account, or with OpenAI to use ChatGPT Plus or Pro, instead of buying separate API credit.
The default build agent has full access for development work. The plan agent is read-only: it denies file edits by default and asks before running shell commands. Press Tab to switch.
A general subagent handles complex searches and multistep tasks and can be invoked with @general.
Use the terminal UI, the desktop app (currently beta) or an IDE extension. OpenCode also runs as a server, and opencode acp starts it as an ACP subprocess for editors.
It loads the right language servers automatically, and /init writes an AGENTS.md so the agent learns your project conventions.
Zen is a curated set of models OpenCode has tested for coding agents, billed pay-per-request. Go is a low-cost subscription: $10 per month, with Go Plus at $40 per month, as of October 2026.
Both are optional. The agent works the same with your own keys, and the official docs state it does not store your code or context data.
HagiCode does not bundle or replace OpenCode. It finds your opencode executable, starts a local server for the project (opencode serve on 127.0.0.1), and sends sessions and prompts to it, so your install, providers and config stay as they are.
The model list comes from the providers you have configured in OpenCode, and HagiCode shows a runtime health state while the server starts.
OpenCode can run agents in parallel inside its own interface. In HagiCode each OpenCode run is a named Agent with visible status next to your other agents, so mixed teams are managed in one place.
OpenCode's plan agent suggests changes; HagiCode's propose, validate, apply, archive flow keeps the plan as a record linked to the diff. Free editions allow 3 concurrent proposals.
HagiCode writes the commit message from your diff and locks the repository while it commits. The embedded Code Server opens files OpenCode changed in a browser editor.
Monospecs lists your repositories in one file so OpenCode starts a proposal knowing the whole change surface. Vault keeps reference projects and notes that complement the AGENTS.md OpenCode already reads.
OpenCode already supports many providers; OmniRoute can add one more routing layer shared across your agents. OpenCode's tool calls use the same format as other agents, and an optional TokenMonitor status-bar item shows today's tokens and cost.
HagiCode is an agentic coding workspace. Rich, convenient UI interactions make planning, agent execution, and project work approachable and easy to navigate, creating an engaging development experience.
