Labels on PRs
The PRs have the following labels:
blockednodejs(Node or npm use is a significant feature of the PR or issue)bump-formula-prCI-no-bottle-cache
Impact
Homebrew users cannot install recent versions of OpenCode (> v1.0.107). The latest version available via Homebrew is v1.0.107.
Context
The Homebrew formula for OpenCode is a Node.js formula that depends on the opencode-ai npm package. The issue seems to be related to Homebrew's CI workflow failing during Node.js dependency verification.
Suggested Actions
- Check if there are any changes in npm dependencies between v1.0.107 (working) and v1.0.108+ (failing)
- Contact the Homebrew team to understand why the CI workflow is failing
- Verify that the
opencode-ainpm package is correctly published and accessible for these versions

can confirm. Another piece of information here:
when i open opencode, i get a notification that it was upgraded to some version X (latest), although it didn't really update.
Also, homebrew shows latest version it has is 1.0.107

Idk it looks like a lot of tools are failing on homebrew: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/actions?query=is%3Afailure
Maybe it's on their end

for those blocked that still want to use homebrew you can just use our tap instead:
brew remove opencode
brew install sst/tap/opencode
we keep our tap up to date

I think the homepage homebrew instruction need to be updated, since it installs the stale version.

Very cool! Are there any other package managers that you keep updated for Linux?
rekram1-node commentedon Nov 29, 2025

We support these:
npm

Also to note for anyone still getting this issue periodically. Sometimes you just need to run
brew update-reset
