10 OpenCode Skills Worth Installing in 2026
Blog post from Firecrawl
OpenCode is a model-agnostic framework that allows for the integration of various skills and plugins to enhance the functionality of any coding agent by improving context and workflow. It supports an open standard for Agent Skills, which are stored in directories containing a SKILL.md file with instructions that only load when relevant to a task, enabling the installation of multiple skills without consuming unnecessary context. These skills, which can be used across various coding agents, include tools for live web access, session management, code understanding, and SaaS integrations. Some notable examples include Firecrawl for web context, stop-slop for refining AI-generated text, Handoff for session transition, Grill Me for plan validation, and Obra Superpowers for comprehensive development frameworks. OpenCode's flexibility allows for the use of different models, with skills designed to work across platforms like Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, and Google Gemini, among others, making it adaptable to a wide range of needs and preferences in coding environments.
