opencode-sync

One command to backup. One command to restore. Your entire dev environment, synced across machines.

Export your opencode workspace — submodules, configs, skills, API keys — to a private GitHub repo.
On a new machine, pull it back and everything installs itself.

---

Why?

You have multiple machines. Each has opencode with different plugins, MCP servers, skills, and submodules checked out at different commits. Keeping them in sync is a nightmare of git submodule update, npx skills add, and copy-pasting config files.

opencode-sync makes it a single command:

# On your main machine
opencode_sync_push "Friday backup"

# On your new laptop
opencode_sync_pull

That's it. Submodules reset to exact commits. MCP servers rebuilt. Skills reinstalled. Config merged. API keys templated. Everything just works.

Quick Start

# 1. Install
git clone https://github.com/<you>/opencode-sync-mcp-server
cd opencode-sync-mcp-server
npm install && npm run build

# 2. Add to your opencode config (~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc)
# {
#   "mcp": {
#     "opencode-sync": {
#       "type": "local",
#       "command": ["node", "<path-to>/dist/index.js"],
#       "enabled": true
#     }
#   }
# }

# 3. Restart opencode, then:
opencode_sync_init          # detect your workspace
opencode_sync_push "init"   # first backup

New machine? opencode_sync_init initType=sync githubUrl=<url> then opencode_sync_pull.

What It Syncs

Category	What	How
Submodules	All 14+ repos, exact commit hash	git clone + git reset --hard
OpenCode Config	plugins, MCP servers, providers	Deep-merge, never overwrite
Skills	40+ installed skills	npx skills add <source> -g from known source map
API Keys	Names + descriptions (never values)	Template file at keys/API.md
Dependencies	gh CLI, Ralph, Skills CLI	Auto-install via winget/brew/apt/npm
Windows Fixes	NTFS path issues	Auto-detects problematic filenames, applies git config core.protectNTFS
Install Log	Every install, its source, any pitfalls	state/install-log.json — provenance you can trust
