Chapter 6: Client/Server and Remote Workflows

Welcome to Chapter 6: Client/Server and Remote Workflows. In this part of OpenCode Tutorial: Open-Source Terminal Coding Agent at Scale, you will build an intuitive mental model first, then move into concrete implementation details and practical production tradeoffs.

OpenCode's client/server architecture enables remote control patterns beyond a single terminal session.

Why This Matters

Remote-capable architecture supports:

  • persistent coding sessions
  • device handoff workflows
  • desktop/mobile companion clients
  • shared team operations patterns

Operational Design Considerations

Concern Practice
session persistence define lifecycle and timeout policy
auth short-lived credentials and rotation
transport security encrypted channel and boundary controls
remote execution risk policy-gated command surfaces

Source References

Summary

You now understand how OpenCode can evolve from local tooling into a remote-capable agent platform.

Next: Chapter 7: Integrations: MCP, LSP, and Extensions
