glance.sh plugin for OpenCode

OpenCode plugin that lets your agent request screenshots from you via glance.sh.

What it does

Maintains a persistent background session on glance.sh. Paste an image anytime — the agent receives it instantly.

  • Background listener — starts when OpenCode launches, reconnects automatically, refreshes sessions before they expire.
  • glance tool — the LLM calls it when it needs to see something visual. Surfaces the session URL.
  • glance_wait tool — waits for the next paste and returns the image URL.
  • Multiple images — paste as many images as you want during a session.

Install

Recommended (npm package):

Add the plugin to your global ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json or project opencode.json:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "plugin": ["@modemdev/glance-opencode"]
}

Restart OpenCode. The background session starts automatically.

Optional: pin a specific version:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "plugin": ["@modemdev/glance-opencode@0.1.0"]
}

Verify

Ask the agent to call the glance tool. You should get a session URL like https://glance.sh/s/<id>.

Then call glance_wait and paste an image in the browser tab — it should return a Screenshot: https://glance.sh/<token>.<ext> URL.

Update / remove

  • If you use @modemdev/glance-opencode without pinning, OpenCode checks for newer versions at startup.
  • If you pin a version, bump it in your plugin list when you want to upgrade.
  • To remove, delete the package from your plugin list and restart OpenCode.

Publishing (maintainers)

Releases are automated via GitHub Actions.

Prerequisite: configure NPM_TOKEN in the glance-agent-plugins repository with publish access to @modemdev/glance-opencode.

  1. Bump version in opencode/package.json.
  2. Commit and push to main.
  3. Create and push a matching tag:
git tag opencode-v0.1.0
git push origin opencode-v0.1.0

The Release opencode package workflow validates the tag/version match and publishes with npm provenance. You can also run the workflow manually in dry-run mode from Actions.

Manual install (legacy)

If you prefer local file management, symlink or copy glance.ts into your OpenCode plugins directory:

# symlink (recommended — stays up to date with git pulls)
ln -s "$(pwd)/glance.ts" ~/.config/opencode/plugins/glance.ts

# or per-project
ln -s "$(pwd)/glance.ts" .opencode/plugins/glance.ts

How it works

opencode starts
  └─▶ plugin creates session on glance.sh
  └─▶ connects SSE (background, auto-reconnect)

LLM calls glance tool
  └─▶ surfaces session URL

LLM calls glance_wait tool
  └─▶ waits for image paste

user pastes image at /s/<id>
  └─▶ SSE emits "image" event
  └─▶ glance_wait returns image URL to LLM

session expires (~10 min)
  └─▶ plugin creates new session, reconnects

Requirements

  • OpenCode v0.1+
  • Bun runtime (ships with OpenCode)

Configuration

No API keys required — sessions are anonymous and ephemeral (10-minute TTL).

The plugin connects to https://glance.sh by default. The SSE connection is held for ~5 minutes per cycle, with automatic reconnection.
