Chat Sidebar for OpenCode 1.0.1

Chat Sidebar for OpenCode is a VS Code sidebar chat extension that drives your locally installed opencode through its official headless server and SDK — a Codex/Cursor-grade GUI chat panel without leaving your editor.

一個掛在 VS Code 側邊欄的聊天面板,透過官方 headless 伺服器驅動你本機安裝的 opencode——不離開編輯器,就有 Codex/Cursor 等級的聊天體驗。

Highlights

  • Chat-first sidebar — multi-session chat with a slide-in session drawer, plus a native stacked Sessions view
  • Streaming chat — markdown + syntax highlighting, collapsible reasoning ("Thinking") parts, and generic tool-call cards that render any tool name
  • Composer — Enter to send, per-session drafts, stop/abort, text + image + @-mention attachments, warn-before-send on sensitive paths
  • Slash commands & pickers — builtin and custom commands, per-session agent and model pickers
  • Inline approvals — permission and question cards right in the conversation; nothing is auto-answered
  • Todos & diffs dock — todo list and per-message diffs in VS Code's native diff editor
  • Message ops — revert/unrevert, regenerate, summarize/compact, shell command, export transcripts
  • Token usage strip, status-bar server controls, editor Attach selection / Attach file, and an Open opencode TUI escape hatch
  • MCP panel and capability detection that adapts the UI to older opencode servers — works with and without oh-my-opencode
  • Bilingual UI (English / 繁體中文) following VS Code's display language, with an in-app override that hot-swaps every open panel

Requirements

  • opencode installed and on your PATH (or set opencodeChatSidebar.binaryPath)
  • At least one LLM provider configured in opencode (auth lives in opencode; the extension never sees your API keys)
  • VS Code 1.99.0 or newer

Install

  • From the Visual Studio Marketplace
  • Or grab chat-sidebar-for-opencode-1.0.1.vsix below and run code --install-extension chat-sidebar-for-opencode-1.0.1.vsix

Notes

This project was formerly named OpenCode Panel (opencode-panel). Same codebase, new identity — repository links redirect automatically. No functional changes in this release.
