Describe the enhancement you want to request
Hi, opencode is really great but things will be much more awesome if you could provide a package without bun, so no native stuff, exactly like claude code provides both a native binary & a nodejs compatible package, this is guarenteed to solve a lot of issues & will make it accessible to a more larger userbase. So it will work great in termux natively without PRoot because of no bun, i know it can run in termux using PRoot but that is extremely slow because bun calls low level system i/o & file access stuff which makes PRoot hang because of system calls emulation. Also it will solve issues with hardlinks & CoW stuff because it will run using nodejs. I dont know e actual work involved in all of this but im ready to provide any help

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:
Your feature request to provide a Node.js-compatible package (without bun binary) is directly motivated by the Termux/Proot performance issues mentioned in these existing issues. The core problem you're describing - that bun's low-level I/O calls don't work well in Proot - is the same root cause affecting issues #3143 and #3144.
Feel free to ignore if your specific use case differs, but coordinating with these existing Termux-related discussions may help find a unified solution.

Because of opentui and the bun apis we use i dont think this is easily possible (re: node)

Can we provide a statically linked binary to solve the problem?
hksdpc255 commentedon Jan 6, 2026
Seems bun itself is compatible for static compiling: oven-sh/bun#16699 (comment)

Yea if they could just provide a statiscally built binary for termux, linked againat bionic, it will be great
