docs(opencode): prepare the post-beta runtime support transition
Start a maintained preparation register from the merged cross-runtime
implementation in #695. Separate the client/plugin dependency versions,
authenticated daemon support policy and CodeNomad release decision so a
future minimum is chosen from the actual post-beta publication contract.

Map legacy retirement candidates to their current files while preserving
the shared connection seam, lifecycle/authorization guarantees, native
pagination and pruning storage/claim safety. Define isolated historical
data acceptance before removing legacy location identity, with explicit
coverage for same-directory sessions, moved histories, forks and compaction.

Track policy preparation, migration certification, implementation cleanup
and release gates as small reviewable increments. Link the new register
from the index and compatibility audit. Current dependencies, supported
runtimes and production behavior are unchanged; implementation work remains
open. Validate document links, repository paths and whitespace only.

CodeNomad

The AI Coding Cockpit for OpenCode

CodeNomad transforms OpenCode from a terminal tool into a premium desktop workspace — built for developers who live inside AI coding sessions for hours and need control, speed, and clarity.

OpenCode gives you the engine. CodeNomad gives you the cockpit.

Multi-instance workspace


Features

  • 🚀 Multi-Instance Workspace
  • 🌐 Remote Access
  • 🧠 Session Management
  • 🎙️ Voice Input & Speech
  • 🌳 Git Worktrees
  • 💬 Rich Message Experience
  • 🧩 SideCars
  • ⌨️ Command Palette
  • 📁 File System Browser
  • 🔐 Authentication & Security
  • 🔔 Notifications
  • 🎨 Theming
  • 🌍 Internationalization

Getting Started

🖥️ Desktop App

Available as both Electron and Tauri builds — choose based on your preference.

Download the latest installer for your platform from Releases.

Platform Formats
macOS DMG, ZIP (Universal: Intel + Apple Silicon)
Windows NSIS Installer, ZIP (x64, ARM64)
Linux Tauri deb, Electron portable tar.gz (x64)

The Tauri deb is currently built and installation-tested on Ubuntu 24.04. Compatibility with older Debian-based distributions is not yet guaranteed.

💻 CodeNomad Server

Run as a local server and access via browser. Perfect for remote development.

npx @neuralnomads/codenomad --password <your-password> --launch

Authentication required: The server requires a password on first run. You can pass it via --password, the CODENOMAD_SERVER_PASSWORD environment variable, or create an auth.json file (see Server Documentation).

Self-signed certificate: On first launch with HTTPS enabled (the default), your browser will show a "Your connection is not private" warning. This is expected — the server generates a local self-signed certificate automatically. Click Advanced → Proceed to localhost to continue. For local-only use without the warning, run with --https=false --http=true.

See Server Documentation for flags, TLS, auth, and remote access.

🧪 Dev Releases

Bleeding-edge builds from the dev branch:

npx @neuralnomads/codenomad-dev --password <your-password> --launch

SideCars

SideCars let you open local web tools inside CodeNomad as tabs.

Previews use token-scoped URLs inside opaque-origin sandboxes. Loopback HTTP native previews receive a dedicated .preview.localhost origin so root routes, POSTs, and live reload behave normally; HTTPS, LAN, and web hosts use the capability path. Element comments use a source-checked message bridge.

Configuration
  • Name: Display name used in CodeNomad
  • Port: Local HTTP or HTTPS service running on 127.0.0.1:<port>
  • Base path: Mounted under /sidecars/:id
  • Prefix mode:
    • Preserve prefix forwards the full /sidecars/:id/... path upstream
    • Strip prefix removes /sidecars/:id before forwarding the request upstream
VSCode (OpenVSCode Server)

Run with Docker:

docker run -it --init -p 8000:3000 -v "${HOME}:${HOME}:cached" -e HOME=${HOME} gitpod/openvscode-server --server-base-path /sidecars/vscode

Add SideCar as:

  • Name: VSCode
  • Port: http://127.0.0.1:8000
  • Base path: /sidecars/vscode
  • Prefix mode: Preserve prefix
Terminal (ttyd)

Run with:

ttyd --writable zsh

Add SideCar as:

  • Name: Terminal
  • Port: http://127.0.0.1:7681
  • Base path: /sidecars/terminal
  • Prefix mode: Strip prefix

Requirements

  • OpenCode CLI — must be installed and in your PATH
  • Node.js 18+ — for server mode or building from source

Development

CodeNomad is a monorepo built with:

Package Description
packages/server Core logic & CLI — workspaces, OpenCode proxy, API, auth, speech
packages/ui SolidJS frontend — reactive, fast, beautiful
packages/electron-app Desktop shell — process management, IPC, native dialogs
packages/tauri-app Tauri desktop shell (experimental)

Quick Start

git clone https://github.com/NeuralNomadsAI/CodeNomad.git
cd CodeNomad
npm install
npm run dev

Troubleshooting

macOS: "CodeNomad.app is damaged and can't be opened"

Gatekeeper flag due to missing notarization. Clear the quarantine attribute:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/CodeNomad.app

On Intel Macs, also check System Settings → Privacy & Security on first launch.

Linux (Wayland + NVIDIA): Tauri App closes immediately

WebKitGTK DMA-BUF/GBM issue. Run with:

WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 codenomad-tauri

See full workaround in the original README.
