opencode

picks land in your opencode prompt as chips, with screenshots sent as images.

on this page

set up#

terminal

$ el install --opencode

this adds element's two opencode plugins (one for the prompt, one that attaches picks). restart opencode afterwards.

each pick lands in your prompt as [element #7], in any terminal.

backspace or delete removes a chip whole.
only chips left in the message are sent. the screenshot goes to the model as an image, the details as hidden context.
each opencode window is its own session, in the browser as soon as it starts.

opencode run, opencode serve and the web ui have no chips: every waiting pick goes with your next message.
a prompt brought back from history shows its chips as plain text. they're still sent, and backspace still removes them whole.
with opencode attach to a separate server, picks don't reach the server.
models that can't read images get the screenshot's file path instead.

el uninstall removes element's plugins.
