oy
Repeatable repository audits and reviews for opencode.
oy is for maintainers who already use opencode and want a bounded, reviewable workflow for repository-wide security audits, code-quality reviews, and finding remediation.
opencode still owns the model, provider, UI, sessions, permissions, edits, shell, and web tools. oy adds:
- deterministic, gitignore-aware repository and diff collection,
- three canonical audit/review/enhance workflow skills with thin command and agent adapters,
- restricted audit/review agent permissions plus Rust/MCP enforcement of bound workflow inputs,
- Markdown and SARIF rendering with stable finding IDs and statuses,
- a one-finding-at-a-time remediation handoff.
The inputs, ordering, limits, and report rendering are deterministic. Model conclusions are not; model choice and prompt quality still affect findings.
Quick start
Requirements: OpenCode 2 with a configured provider, plus git for diff reviews. oy 0.12.0 no longer supports OpenCode 1.

# Restart or activate your shell as the installer prints, then:
The installer uses mise to install or upgrade oy, @opencode-ai/cli@0.0.0-next-15323, tokei, and Universal Ctags, then writes the global OpenCode integration with oy setup. Source-built Sighthound is opt-in with OY_INSTALL_SIGHTHOUND=1; the installer provisions Rust 1.96 for it.
For a minimal manual install:
Configure authentication and models with OpenCode's provider guide. See the getting-started guide for install behavior, supported host versions, and workspace-local setup.
Core workflow
1. Audit a repository
The default report is ISSUES.md. An exact workspace-relative path narrows collection; other text is an audit lens. SARIF output can be consumed by code-scanning tools.
2. Review a workspace or target diff
With no target, oy reviews the collected workspace. With a branch, commit, or ref, it reviews deterministic git diff <target> input. The default report is REVIEW.md.
3. Fix one finding
Reports include stable IDs and statuses. oy enhance selects one actionable finding, makes a focused change through opencode's permission system, and verifies it when possible. Rerunning an audit or review reads the previous generated report once and carries forward only findings that remain current.
See the workflow guide for report semantics, scope behavior, failure limits, and practical examples.
Why not just prompt opencode?
A free-form agent can choose what to inspect and may silently sample a large repository. The oy audit/review protocol instead:
- inventories the requested scope,
- creates ordered chunks or target-diff chunks,
- fails closed when the configured chunk budget is exceeded,
- rejects changed input, skipped chunks, out-of-order reads, and early rendering,
- normalizes the final report for reruns and remediation.
This makes coverage decisions visible and repeatable without rebuilding opencode's general coding agent.
Coverage boundary
“Every chunk” means every chunk produced by oy's collector, not every byte in the repository. Collection skips gitignored and hidden paths, common dependency/build directories, lockfiles, likely-secret files, generated reports, binary/non-UTF-8/empty files, unreadable files, and files larger than 512 KiB. Eligible large files and diff evidence are sliced so chunk text stays below 240 KiB and 19,000 lines. Review these exclusions before treating an audit as complete for a high-assurance use case.
Sighthound uses independent gitignore-aware discovery and its own filters/size limit. It may inspect supported hidden source or source files larger than oy's 512 KiB collector limit. The auditor calls it only when the focus explicitly requests Sighthound or SAST; returned snippets may be sent to the model provider.
Optional local evidence tools add:
| Helper | MCP evidence |
|---|---|
tokei |
source-line counts |
| Universal Ctags | structural outlines |
| Sighthound | bounded SAST candidates for supported languages |
Install them with:
Sighthound remains optional and source-built. The install pins immutable commit c4608eb2b6ca256daf4dbd1e74aadc3570343685, uses --locked, and builds only bin=sighthound; oy doctor --install-sighthound performs the same pinned build. Routine oy doctor --install-missing does not build it. Sighthound scans Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, PHP, C#, Go, Ruby, HTML, and Django templates; it does not scan Rust or C/C++. OY_TOKEI, OY_CTAGS, and OY_SIGHTHOUND can select absolute helper paths. Automatic discovery rejects relative PATH entries.
Setup and launcher behavior
oy setup writes native OpenCode 2 JSON plus seven generated agents and three canonical skills. Global setup uses OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR when set, otherwise ~/.config/opencode/; workspace setup uses .opencode/. In either directory, an existing opencode.jsonc is selected before opencode.json. Use --dry-run to preview or --remove to remove oy's current generated files and owned config entries.
Setup and removal stage one multi-file batch and roll back mutations already committed if a later mutation fails. This is in-process rollback, not crash journaling or durable recovery. Setup migrates exact legacy command/MCP conversions and fails closed on ambiguous fields. JSON and JSONC are still pretty-reserialized, so comments and formatting are not preserved. Removal deletes owned current values; it does not restore values that existed before setup.
Launch, model, and workflow commands only validate that a complete global or workspace integration exists; they never auto-refresh it. Run oy setup explicitly after generated assets change (oy upgrade does this as an explicit post-upgrade step). All selected OpenCode runner and managed-API processes use OY_ROOT as their working directory.
oy defaults to the opencode2 executable. This release supports exactly beta 0.0.0-next-15323 and tagged OpenCode 2.x; other prereleases and major versions fail closed until tested. OY_OPENCODE remains an executable override. oy run, audit, review, and enhance use OpenCode 2's noninteractive run command; oy model uses its managed API because the beta has no model-list command. oy run supports --continue-session, --resume, and mode-selected agents; set OY_OPENCODE_MODEL=provider/model#variant to override the noninteractive workflow model. JSON mode forwards OpenCode's JSON event stream.
oy, oy open, and oy chat launch the OpenCode 2 TUI. Session continuation/resume is supported, but the beta TUI cannot select an agent or oy mode per launch, so select the desired agent inside the TUI; use oy run when mode selection is required.
CLI audit/review/enhance runs inherit a typed context binding the run ID, session, model, scope, output, format, and maximum chunks. Review targets are resolved to a commit OID before launch. MCP enforces those values, stable input, chunk count/order/completion, and renderer output metadata; noninteractive workflow session titles include oy:<run-id> for correlation.
OpenCode's noninteractive runner cannot pause for unresolved ask permissions. Use plan for read-only work, edit when file edits are intentionally pre-approved, and auto only in trusted workspaces where both edits and shell are pre-approved.

Safety
oy is not a sandbox. Repository text returned by MCP may be sent to the model provider selected in OpenCode. Native oy can read collected workspace text, run fixed read-only helper processes, write requested reports inside the workspace, update integration config, launch OpenCode's noninteractive runner, and query its managed model API through the CLI. oy does not store provider credentials; general edits, shell, web, authentication, and provider traffic remain governed by OpenCode.
Use restrictive opencode permissions and a disposable environment for untrusted repositories. Read SECURITY.md and the tool safety notes before high-risk use.
Project direction and development
The product contract is intentionally narrow: improve the audit → review → remediate loop without becoming another model client or general agent framework. See ROADMAP.md for current outcomes and explicit non-goals.
