Description

Description

When opening the OpenCode Assistant from the VS Code UI (Ctrl+P -> Open OpenCode Assistant), the panel fails to open with:

Failed to open OpenCode panel: spawn opencode ENOENT

Root Cause

In sst-dev.opencode-v2 extension (v0.1.1), dist/extension.js spawns the opencode binary using child_process.spawn without shell: true:

(0,Ve.spawn)("opencode",["serve",...],{signal:d.signal,env:{...}})

On Windows, npm installs executables as .cmd files (e.g., opencode.cmd). Without shell: true, Node.js spawn cannot resolve .cmd files, resulting in ENOENT.

Fix

Add shell: process.platform === "win32" to the spawn options:

(0,Ve.spawn)("opencode",["serve",...],{signal:d.signal,shell:process.platform==="win32",env:{...}})

Workaround

Until this is fixed upstream, users can manually patch dist/extension.js in the extension directory at ~/.vscode/extensions/sst-dev.opencode-v2-0.1.1/dist/extension.js and add shell:process.platform==="win32" to the spawn call options object, then reload VS Code.

Environment

  • OS: Windows
  • Extension: sst-dev.opencode-v2 v0.1.1
  • opencode installed via: npm (global)
  • opencode path: C:\Users\Vinicius\AppData\Roaming\npm\opencode.cmd
