[OpenCode](https://opencode.ai) AI coding agent, right inside your editor. No tab-switching, no context loss.

**Like the extension? There's also a [desktop app and web version](https://github.com/btriapitsyn/openchamber) with even more features.**
|
|
|
|
## What you get
|
|
|
|
- **Chat beside your code** — responsive layout that adapts to narrow and wide panels
|
|
- **Agent Manager** — run the same prompt across multiple models in parallel, compare results side by side
|
|
- **Right-click actions** — add context, explain selections, and improve code in-place
|
|
- **Click-to-open** — file paths in tool output open directly in your editor; edit-style results land in a focused diff view
|
|
- **Session editor panel** — keep chat sessions open alongside files
|
|
- **Theme-aware** — adapts to your VS Code light, dark, and high-contrast themes
|
|
|
|
Plus everything from the shared OpenChamber UI: branchable timeline, smart tool UIs, voice mode, Git workflows, and more.
