Description

OpenCode would install to WSL on Windows if WSL is enabled.

Installation methods tried:
- curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash
- npm install -g opencode-ai
I have yet to try using chocolatey due to permission on this machine.

Workaround:

I was able to install it correctly by using a terminal with a native Unix emulation layer (MinGW64/Git Bash) to run the curl command, then manually adding the binary to my system PATH.

Environment
OS: Windows 10/11
WSL Status: Enabled
Shell: PowerShell / CMD

Plugins

No response

OpenCode version

1.1.43

Steps to reproduce

  1. Enable WSL feature on Windows and install one of the distros.
  2. Run curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash
  3. Installation script should notify that the command is added to a Unix path and using opencode in the terminall will not work (both powershell and cmd)
  4. Verify by going into wsl and do opencode

Screenshot and/or share link

No response

Operating System

Windows 11

Terminal

Windows Terminal

It is recommended that you run opencode in WSL. You are running the WSL install command which is why it is installing in WSL. Try installing it with npm or one of the other installation methods if you REALLY want to run it in windows. https://opencode.ai/docs/#windows
