I mostly wanted a “send a task now, check results later” flow when I’m away from my desk. With Discord already on my phone, this gives me a lightweight remote control for my existing OpenCode setup:

Start a session from Discord, watch real-time progress in a thread, and keep iterating in the same place. If I send more instructions while it’s busy, they queue up and run sequentially. For longer changes, it can create an isolated git worktree/branch per task, and there’s a one-click “create PR” action when it’s ready. There’s also a passthrough mode so you can just type normally in the thread (less painful on mobile).

Quick start is basically:

- npm install -g remote-opencode

- remote-opencode setup

- remote-opencode start

Safety note: this runs locally on your machine. If you’re using it in any shared Discord server, you’ll want to enable the allowlist so only specific Discord user IDs can control it.

Would love feedback on the UX (Discord as the “remote terminal”) and the safety defaults / guardrails.
