Running `opencode` without Node installed results in an error

[TomasHubelbauer]

Description

I use the Bun install method for OpenCode and my server only has the Bun runtime, not Node. When I run opencode after installing it with Bun, I get this error:

> bun add -g opencode-ai
> opencode
bun add -g opencode-ai

Can OpenCode be run with Bun? Except for bunx opencode I mean.

Plugins

No response

OpenCode version

1.1.44

Steps to reproduce

> bun add -g opencode-ai

bun add -g opencode-ai

Do not have node in the env

I temporarily fixed this with ln -s "$(which bun)" ~/.bun/bin/node to force using Bun for scripts that require Node in their shebang. But I think OpenCode should run without issues in an environment where only Bun is available, too.
