Marius ec5c16310c docs: improve AGENTS.md with build commands, monorepo map, and architecture patterns (#185)
Add high-value, stable knowledge that saves discovery time:
- Root: build/dev commands, monorepo package table, SDK regen workflow
- Package: import aliases, key patterns (namespace modules, Instance.state,
  fn, Tool.define, BusEvent, NamedError, iife), storage model, TUI/server/
  provider stack info

Properly split root (repo-level) vs package (opencode-specific) concerns.

opencode agent guidelines

Build/Test

  • Run: bun run --conditions=browser ./src/index.ts
  • Test: bun test (all tests) or bun test test/tool/tool.test.ts (single test)
  • Typecheck: bun run typecheck (runs tsgo --noEmit)

Import Aliases

  • @/* maps to ./src/*
  • @tui/* maps to ./src/cli/cmd/tui/*

Key Patterns

Namespace modules -- Code is organized as TypeScript namespaces, not classes. Each module exports a namespace with its Zod schemas, types, and functions:

export namespace Session {
  export const Info = z.object({ ... })
  export type Info = z.infer<typeof Info>
  export const create = fn(z.object({ ... }), async (input) => { ... })
}

Instance.state(init, dispose?) -- Per-project lazy singleton. Many modules register state this way. The state is tied to the project directory via AsyncLocalStorage:

const state = Instance.state(async () => {
  // initialized once per project, cached
  return { ... }
})
// later: (await state()).someValue

fn(schema, callback) -- Wraps functions with Zod input validation. Used for most exported functions:

export const get = fn(z.object({ id: z.string() }), async (input) => { ... })

Tool.define(id, init) -- All tools follow this pattern. The init returns { description, parameters, execute }. Output is auto-truncated.

BusEvent.define(type, schema) + Bus.publish() -- In-process pub/sub event system for cross-module communication.

NamedError.create(name, schema) -- Structured errors with Zod schemas. Prefer these over throwing raw errors.

iife() -- Immediately-invoked function expression helper. Used to avoid let statements per style guide.

Logging -- Use Log.create({ service: "name" }) pattern.

Storage

Filesystem-based JSON, not a database. Data lives in ~/.local/share/kilo/storage/. Keys are path arrays: Storage.write(["session", projectID, sessionID], data).

TUI

Built with SolidJS + OpenTUI (@opentui/solid) -- a terminal UI framework. JSX renders to the terminal using elements like <box>, <text>, <scrollbox>. The TUI communicates with the server via @kilocode/sdk.

Server

Hono-based HTTP server with OpenAPI spec generation. SSE for real-time events. When you add/change routes, regenerate the SDK (see root AGENTS.md for the command).

Providers and Models

Uses the Vercel AI SDK as the abstraction layer. Providers are loaded from a bundled map or dynamically installed at runtime. Models come from models.dev (external API), cached locally.
