To dislodge that, OpenAI would need to deliver a platform that is meaningfully AI native rather than AI augmented. That means the repository itself becomes a living system that continuously understands the codebase, its intent, and its risks, rather than a passive store of files.
Open-source AI coding tool OpenCode features a native terminal-based UI, multi-session support, and compatibility with over 75 models, including Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, and local models. In addition to its CLI tool, OpenCode is also available as a desktop app and and an IDE extension for VS Code, Cursor, and other tools. OpenCode allows developers to use their existing subscriptions to paid services such as ChatGPT Plus/Pro, GitHub Copilot. Additionally, it includes a set of free models that can be used locally through LM Studio.
