opencode-discord-rpc

Discord Rich Presence plugin for OpenCode - Show your AI-assisted coding activity in Discord!

Features

• Shows your current AI model being used (GPT-4, Claude, etc.)
• Displays session duration (elapsed time)
• Shows activity status (Coding/Idle/Thinking)
• Clickable button to visit OpenCode.ai
• Auto-reconnects if Discord restarts
• Zero configuration needed

Installation

Add the plugin to your opencode.json:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "plugin": ["opencode-discord-rpc"]
}

For global installation, add it to ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json.

That's it! Restart OpenCode and your Discord Rich Presence will appear.

How It Works

Once installed, the plugin automatically:

1. Connects to Discord when OpenCode starts
2. Displays your current activity in Discord's Rich Presence
3. Updates in real-time as you code:
   • Coding... - When tools are executing or you're actively working
   • Thinking... - When the AI is generating a response
   • Waiting for input... - When the session is waiting for your input
   • Idle - When no session is active

Configuration

The plugin works out of the box with no configuration needed.

For advanced users, you can customize behavior with environment variables:

| Variable | Description | Default | |----------|-------------|---------| | OPENCODE_DISCORD_ENABLED | Set to "false" to disable | "true" | | OPENCODE_DISCORD_CLIENT_ID | Use your own Discord Application | Built-in | | OPENCODE_DISCORD_RETRY_INTERVAL | Reconnect interval (ms) | 15000 | | OPENCODE_DISCORD_MAX_RETRIES | Max reconnection attempts | 5 |

Requirements

• OpenCode v1.0+
• Discord Desktop App (must be running)

Troubleshooting

Rich Presence not showing

1. Make sure Discord is running - The desktop app must be open
2. Check Activity Status is enabled - In Discord Settings > Activity Privacy, ensure "Display current activity as a status message" is ON
3. Restart OpenCode - The plugin connects on startup

Connection errors in logs

The plugin will automatically retry if Discord isn't available. Common messages:

• "Discord is not running or not accessible" - Discord desktop app is closed
• "Max retry attempts reached" - Discord wasn't found after multiple attempts; restart OpenCode when Discord is running

Privacy

This plugin does not display:

• Your project name or path
• File names or contents
• Any code or conversation content

It only shows:

• The AI model being used
• Your activity status
• How long the session has been active
