OpenCode

OpenCode is an open-source AI coding assistant that runs in a developer's terminal and can read, edit, and execute code in a project on the developer's behalf. Because tools like this can be given broad access to source code, credentials, and local files, they introduce data handling, third-party model usage, and security questions that enterprise compliance teams need to review before developers adopt them. Organizations should confirm where prompts and code are sent, which AI model providers are involved, and whether approved use policies cover tools that act autonomously inside a codebase.
