Openwork Core

OpenCode Integration

Spawn OpenCode CLI

opencode -p "your prompt" -f json -q

Read OpenCode database

~/.opencode/opencode.db  # SQLite database

Key tables

• sessions — Task runs
• messages — Chat messages and tool calls
• history — File change tracking

Common Gotchas

• OpenWork must stay within OpenCode's tool surface; avoid inventing new capabilities.
• Always expose plans, permissions, and progress for non-technical users.
• Use Tauri commands for all system access (file, shell, database).
• Keep UI at 60fps; avoid blocking the main thread.
• Mobile builds require platform-specific setup (Xcode, Android Studio).

UI Principles

• Slick and fluid: animations, transitions, micro-interactions.
• Mobile-first: touch targets, gestures, adaptive layouts.
• Transparency: show plans, steps, and tool calls.
• Progressive disclosure: hide advanced controls until needed.

First-Time Setup (If Not Configured)

git clone https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode vendor/opencode

Initialize Tauri project

pnpm create tauri-app . --template solid-ts
