OpenCode News: Latest Releases & Events

In October 2026, attackers breached an older OpenCode Console system, stealing API keys from 1.4% of users before Anthropic, Google and OpenAI blocked them. That came days after the October release of OpenCode 2.0, a major version of its open-source terminal coding agent. In March, OpenCode launched an iOS port of its desktop app with WhisperKit speech-to-text and a custom keyboard.

  • Hackers breach OpenCode Console, drain users' API credits
    Attackers broke into an older OpenCode Console system overnight, stealing stored API keys from 1.4% of users and running up unauthorized AI charges — which OpenCode confirmed as a 'large scale distillation attack' — with some users reporting losses above $1,000 before Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI blocked the exposed keys and began issuing refunds. The incident highlighted the 'asymmetry problem' in AI security, as co-founder Dax Raad said attackers probed the company's systems nonstop for 48 hours, requiring defensive AI agents running 24/7, while frontier models' safety filters initially refused to analyze the malicious payloads — drawing criticism from figures like David Sacks.
