@rizal72/oc-ponytail-widget

The ponytail level, in the prompt footer and in the desktop app.

An unofficial companion to the ponytail plugin, which is server-only in OpenCode and draws no badge of its own. Install it only if you use ponytail: with that plugin not installed it draws nothing, on either surface, rather than claim a level for a package that is not there.

Install

opencode plugin add @rizal72/oc-ponytail-widget

Or by hand, one line in ~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc — after oc-coffee, if you have it, so the glyph lands to the right of the cup:

"plugins": ["@rizal72/oc-coffee", "@rizal72/oc-ponytail-widget"]

Update

V2 checks package plugins at startup and never applies the update, so a package only moves when you ask:

opencode plugin check     # which of the installed packages are behind
opencode plugin update    # apply them, and let the server reload

Or install @rizal72/oc-plugin-updates: the count appears in a pill above the composer, with the update one click away.

TUI

A horse glyph in the footer, right of the coffee cup, then the level word — off, lite, full, ultra. The glyph is md-horse_variant, because Nerd Fonts has no ponytail glyph.

GUI

A pill above the composer: the level as the capsule, the four levels as its rows — a selector the terminal never had. Picking one writes ~/.config/opencode/.ponytail-active, the file /ponytail <level> writes too, so the next turn reads that level.

How it works

The level comes from the same two sources ponytail reads, in the same order:

1. ~/.config/opencode/.ponytail-active — what /ponytail <level> writes;
2. ~/.config/ponytail/config.json — the shared default that pi and OpenCode both read.

With neither, it shows the package's own default, full. Both surfaces re-read every two seconds, so a level set in the terminal appears in the window and the other way round.

Requires OpenCode v2. TypeScript, no build step, no runtime dependencies.
