OpenCode is a fully open-source AI coding agent built by Anomaly that runs in the terminal, desktop, and IDE — and connects to more than 75 LLM providers including Claude, GPT, Gemini, and local models. It currently has over 140,000 GitHub stars and 850 contributors, making it one of the fastest-growing open-source developer tools of 2026. Unlike vendor-locked coding agents, OpenCode lets developers bring their own subscriptions (ChatGPT Plus, GitHub Copilot) or connect local models through LM Studio. It supports the Agent Client Protocol (ACP) for broad IDE compatibility — JetBrains, Zed, Neovim, Emacs, VS Code, and Cursor — and emphasizes a privacy-first architecture that never stores your code or context data. The optional Zen tier provides a curated, benchmarked set of AI models specifically optimized for coding workflows, offering a premium experience without locking users into a single cloud provider. With an Early Bird period ending April 14, OpenCode is rapidly becoming the go-to open alternative to Claude Code and Copilot for developers who want control over their stack.

Pluck is a Chrome extension that solves one of the most common friction points in AI-assisted UI development: copying a design from an existing website. Instead of wrestling with raw HTML, you click any UI component — a nav bar, a card, a form, anything — and Pluck generates a clean, structured prompt optimized for Claude, Cursor, v0, or Bolt to recreate it. The extension strips noise from the DOM, restructures styling into clean CSS specifications, and can export directly to Figma. Crucially, it works on pages behind authentication — so you can capture your own app's components, competitor dashboards, or enterprise SaaS UIs without the usual copy-paste nightmare. Built by an indie developer using Plasmo and Next.js. Free tier covers 50 captures per month; unlimited use is $10/month. The "Pluck this" workflow — spot something, generate the prompt, build it — turns browsing into a design research tool. Surfaced on Hacker News Show HN today.
Reviewer scorecard
“140K stars isn't hype — OpenCode has real momentum because it solves the actual problem: vendor lock-in. I can use my existing Claude subscription, switch to a local Gemma model when I need privacy, and have it work in every IDE I already use. This is what the coding agent space needed.”
“I do this workflow manually constantly — inspect element, copy classes, paste into Claude, iterate. Pluck automates the messy part. The authenticated-page support is the killer feature; most competitors only work on public sites. $10/month is genuinely cheap for the time it saves.”
“The 'works with 75 models' pitch sounds great until you realize most of those models are dramatically worse at coding than Claude or GPT-5. The premium Zen tier is where the real value likely lives, and we don't know what that costs yet. Wait to see how Zen pricing shakes out before committing.”
“AI coding tools already have screenshot-to-code features, and Claude can analyze HTML you paste directly. There's a real question of whether the generated prompts are actually better than just feeding Claude the raw HTML. Also, copying UI from competitor or third-party sites without permission sits in legally murky territory.”
“OpenCode is the Mozilla Firefox moment for AI coding tools — an open-source reference implementation that keeps the big players honest on privacy and portability. The Agent Client Protocol integration points toward a future where your coding agent context travels across every tool in your workflow seamlessly.”
“Pluck represents an emerging category: tools that make the entire web a design asset library. As AI coding matures, the ability to rapidly prototype by remixing existing production UIs will become a standard developer skill. Early movers in this workflow will have a productivity edge.”
“The multi-session and shareable session link features are underrated for creative teams. Being able to share an in-progress coding session with a designer or content collaborator without spinning up another subscription is genuinely useful. Privacy-first matters a lot when working with client IP.”
“As someone who regularly finds UI patterns I want to adapt, this changes everything. Browsing becomes active design research. The Figma export is the icing — capture from live production, land in your design file, build from there. The workflow finally makes sense end-to-end.”
