bin/opencode fails with 'require is not defined' in ESM packages

[qiushile]

Problem

Running opencode --version on Node.js environments fails with:

ReferenceError: require is not defined in ES module scope

Root Cause

packages/opencode/bin/opencode is a JavaScript launcher using CommonJS require() syntax, but package.json declares "type": "module". Node.js resolves this file as ESM and require() is unavailable.

This affects all platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows) and any Node.js environment.

Reproduction

1. Install opencode package from npm or clone repo
2. Run node packages/opencode/bin/opencode --version (or any npm/pnpm/bun install that resolves the bin entry)
3. Error: require is not defined in ES module scope

Expected Behavior

The launcher should execute successfully and spawn the platform-specific binary.

Fix

Rename bin/opencode → bin/opencode.cjs and update the bin field in package.json. The .cjs extension tells Node.js to treat the file as CommonJS regardless of package type. 1 file rename + 1 line change.

• fix: ReferenceError: require is not defined in binary wrapper (Node.js 25+ / ESM) #22769: Same error (ReferenceError: require is not defined), same file (packages/opencode/bin/opencode), same root cause ("type": "module" + CommonJS require), and same proposed fix direction (rename to .cjs).
