OpenCode Release Command

A custom OpenCode command that generates engaging press releases for OpenCode releases.

What This Command Does

The opencode-release command automates the creation of developer-focused press releases by:

1. Fetching release data from the OpenCode GitHub repository using the gh CLI
2. Comparing releases to identify all commits between versions
3. Analyzing diffs to understand the actual code changes (not just commit messages)
4. Categorizing changes by impact: UI/UX, performance, security, bug fixes, new features
5. Generating a press release with a witty, developer-to-developer tone

The output is a structured markdown press release that emphasizes why developers should care about each change, not just what changed.

Example:

Installation

OpenCode commands are markdown files placed in the ~/.config/opencode/commands/ directory.

# Create the commands directory if it doesn't exist
mkdir -p ~/.config/opencode/commands

# Copy the command file
cp opencode-release.md ~/.config/opencode/commands/

Usage

Once installed, invoke the command in OpenCode:

/opencode-release

Or reference it with:

@opencode-release

Requirements

• OpenCode installed and configured
• GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated

Writing Style

The generated press releases follow these principles:

• Funny and self-aware — developer humor, relatable analogies
• Accurate — only includes features verified in the actual code
• Benefit-focused — explains why changes matter, not just what changed
• Curated — highlights significant changes, skips trivial commits
