opencode-mcp · Summary

MCP server that integrates OpenCode AI's 79 tools with MCP clients for autonomous coding tasks.

filesystem · Summary

A feature-rich MCP server for filesystem operations with dynamic directory access control.

opencode-mcp · Use cases

  • Delegate complex coding tasks like building REST APIs or refactoring modules to OpenCode while the primary AI continues working
  • Run background coding tasks in parallel with other work using fire-and-forget tools
  • Automate code reviews and debugging sessions with guided workflow prompts

filesystem · Use cases

  • Enable AI models to read and write project files during development
  • Allow Claude or other MCP clients to browse and analyze codebases
  • Provide secure sandboxed access to specific directories for content generation
