[FEATURE]: Built-in browser with visual click-to-edit (like Codex) #30755
Description

Feature Request
Codex recently shipped a built-in browser panel where you can load your local dev server,
Click any UI element, annotate it, and the AI makes the edit directly.
Would love to see something similar in OpenCode — a side panel or embedded browser
that lets you point at an element and describe the change, rather than switching
tabs and copy-pasting selectors into chat.
Why it matters
- Huge speedup for frontend/UI work
- Keeps the full context (DOM, styles, runtime state) in one place
- Codex has it, Cursor has it, Stagewise is a workaround — OpenCode should have it natively
Possible approaches
- Embed a browser panel (like Tauri's webview) that loads localhost
- Integrate with Browser MCP / opencode-browser plugin as a first-class feature
- Allow element selection → auto-inject DOM context into the AI prompt

FYI — there was a prior attempt at this in PR #26773 ("feat: add integrated browser workspace") by @AlexDelgado20, which implemented an embedded browser panel via Electron's BrowserView with /browser and @browser prompts, page annotations, screenshot-to-chat, and agent-exposed browser tools. It was closed without merging on 2026-05-11.
Also FYI this missing feature is what made me quit using OpenCode last week, so I see it as extremely vital to add asap.
