@openchamber/web

Run OpenCode in your browser. Install the CLI, open localhost:3000, done. Works on desktop browsers, tablets, and phones as a PWA.

Full project overview, screenshots, and all features: github.com/btriapitsyn/openchamber

Install

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/btriapitsyn/openchamber/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

Or install manually: bun add -g @openchamber/web (or npm, pnpm, yarn).

Prerequisites: OpenCode CLI installed, Node.js 20+.

Usage

openchamber                          # Start on port 3000
openchamber --port 8080              # Custom port
openchamber --ui-password secret     # Password-protect UI
openchamber tunnel help              # Tunnel lifecycle commands
openchamber tunnel providers         # Show provider capabilities
openchamber tunnel profile add --provider cloudflare --mode managed-remote --name prod-main --hostname app.example.com --token <token>
openchamber tunnel start --profile prod-main
openchamber tunnel start --provider cloudflare --mode quick --qr
openchamber tunnel start --provider cloudflare --mode managed-local --config ~/.cloudflared/config.yml
openchamber tunnel status --all      # Show tunnel state across instances
openchamber tunnel stop --port 3000  # Stop tunnel only (server stays running)
openchamber logs                     # Follow latest instance logs
OPENCODE_PORT=4096 OPENCODE_SKIP_START=true openchamber                    # Connect to external OpenCode server
OPENCODE_HOST=https://myhost:4096 OPENCODE_SKIP_START=true openchamber  # Connect via custom host/HTTPS
openchamber stop                     # Stop server
openchamber update                   # Update to latest version

Tunnel behavior notes

• One active tunnel per running OpenChamber instance (port).
• Starting a different tunnel mode/provider on the same instance replaces the active tunnel.
• Replacing or stopping a tunnel revokes existing connect links and invalidates remote tunnel sessions.
• Connect links are one-time tokens; generating a new link revokes the previous unused link.

OPENCODE_PORT=4096 OPENCODE_SKIP_START=true openchamber
OPENCODE_HOST=https://myhost:4096 OPENCODE_SKIP_START=true openchamber

| Variable | Description | |----------|-------------| | OPENCODE_HOST | Full base URL of external server (overrides OPENCODE_PORT) | | OPENCODE_PORT | Port of external server | | OPENCODE_SKIP_START | Skip starting embedded OpenCode server | | OPENCHAMBER_OPENCODE_HOSTNAME | Bind hostname for managed OpenCode server (default: 127.0.0.1, use 0.0.0.0 for LAN/remote access — trusted networks only) |

OPENCHAMBER_OPENCODE_HOSTNAME=0.0.0.0 openchamber --port 3000

Security note: binding to 0.0.0.0 exposes the server on all network interfaces — use only on trusted networks and protect with firewall rules or --ui-password.

Optional env vars:

environment:
  UI_PASSWORD: your_secure_password
  OPENCHAMBER_TUNNEL_MODE: quick # quick | managed-remote | managed-local
  OPENCHAMBER_TUNNEL_PROVIDER: cloudflare

For managed-remote mode, also set:

environment:
  OPENCHAMBER_TUNNEL_MODE: managed-remote
  OPENCHAMBER_TUNNEL_HOSTNAME: app.example.com
  OPENCHAMBER_TUNNEL_TOKEN: <token>

For managed-local mode, you can set:

environment:
  OPENCHAMBER_TUNNEL_MODE: managed-local
  OPENCHAMBER_TUNNEL_CONFIG: /home/openchamber/.cloudflared/config.yml

Managed-local path note: OPENCHAMBER_TUNNEL_CONFIG must use a container path under /home/openchamber/.... If the config file references credentials-file, ensure that JSON path is also mounted and reachable inside the container.

Data directory: mount data/ for persistent storage. Ensure permissions:

mkdir -p data/openchamber data/opencode/share data/opencode/config data/ssh
chown -R 1000:1000 data/

openchamber             # Runs in background by default
openchamber stop        # Stop background server

Use --foreground to keep the CLI process alive so systemd (or any other process manager) can track and restart it. Combine with OPENCODE_HOST to connect to an OpenCode instance running as a separate service.

~/.config/systemd/user/opencode.service

[Unit]
Description=OpenCode Server

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=opencode serve --port 4095
Environment="PATH=/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/sbin:/home/YOU/.local/bin:/home/YOU/.npm-global/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin"

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

Why set PATH and SSH_AUTH_SOCK? systemd user services start with a minimal environment — no shell profile is sourced. Without an explicit PATH, OpenCode won't find tools installed via Homebrew, npm, or ~/.local/bin. Without SSH_AUTH_SOCK, git operations over SSH (push, pull, clone) will fail. %t expands to $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (e.g. /run/user/1000), where most SSH agents write their socket.

--host 0.0.0.0 is required to listen on all interfaces (the default is 127.0.0.1). Use --host <ip> or OPENCHAMBER_HOST=<ip> to bind to a specific interface instead.
