Question

There are no winget option in the documentation, while it's possible to install via winget install --id=SST.opencode -e.

I'm wondering who is owning that winget package? There is a discrepancy in versions:

  • the latest version in Releases section is [v1.0.133](https://github.com/sst/opencode/releases/tag/v1.0.133);
  • the latest available via winget is v1.0.130.

We used to document it but removed it because people always complained about it and there was some code signing issue or something that said oh the code has a virus but then everytime it goes away because it was a false flag

+1 for documenting winget install --id=SST.opencode -e - I was a bit bummed looking at the docs to see chocolatey and scoop but no winget. I was surprised to see the SST.opencode package exists, but then since it's not reflected in the docs, one does wonder if it's official. winget is very important for the Windows installation experience

Same for the desktop winget install opencode-desktop would be a great addition.

The packages are authored by a bot owned by https://github.com/SpecterShell so not official. See https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/pull/331223

That said it probably wouldn't be hard to add this as official feature since the manifest pointing to github releases already exist.

I also hope to be able to install OpenCode in winget. To be honest, I don’t have any other tools.
