Description

Log noise: startup repeatedly tries to install @opencode-ai/plugin@local, which does not exist on npm

Summary

Every startup logs a background dependency install failed warning several times, because it tries to install @opencode-ai/plugin at version local. That version is not published on npm, so the install can never succeed.

Nothing appears to break — local plugins still load and run — so this looks like log noise rather than a functional bug. Filing in case the version string is meant to be substituted at build time and this indicates a packaging slip.

Environment

• Version 1.18.11 (opencode-1.18.11-1.x86_64), Linux RPM from https://opencode.ai/download/stable/linux-x64-rpm
• Fedora Linux 43

Log output

From ~/.local/share/opencode/log/opencode.log, 39 occurrences across the runs I have:

level=WARN message="background dependency install failed" dir=/home/<user>/.config/opencode
error="Cause([Fail(NpmInstallFailedError (cause: @opencode-ai/plugin: No matching version found for @opencode-ai/plugin@local.))])"

It appears 4 times per startup in 8 of the 9 runs in my log (7 in the remaining one), 39 total.

Why it can never succeed

@opencode-ai/plugin is published, and the version matching this build exists:

$ curl -s https://registry.npmjs.org/@opencode-ai%2Fplugin | jq '.versions | has("1.18.11"), has("local")'
true
false

latest is currently 1.18.13. There is no local dist-tag or version.

Impact

Apparently none. A local plugin in ~/.config/opencode/plugins/ loads and its event hook fires normally despite the warning, so plugin loading is not blocked.

Things I tried

Creating ~/.config/opencode/package.json with {"dependencies": {"@opencode-ai/plugin": "1.18.11"}} did not change the behaviour — the requested version stayed local. I removed that file afterwards, so it is not present in the state described above.

Expected

Either the version is resolved to a published one at build time, or the install is skipped when no plugin actually requires the package.
