Kompass is under active development, so workflows, package APIs, and adapter support may keep evolving as the toolkit expands.

Navigate your way - manual steering, steered autonomy, or autonomously.

Kompass keeps AI coding agents on course with token-efficient, composable workflows.

Bundled Surface

• Commands cover direct work (/ask, /commit, /merge, /skill/create, /skill/optimize), orchestration (/dev, /ship, /todo, /pr/fix/loop), ticket planning/sync, and PR review/shipping flows. /branch/inline, /commit/inline, /commit-and-push/inline, /pr/create/inline, and /ship/inline reuse the invoking session instead of starting a subtask.
• Agents are intentionally narrow: worker handles implementation and multi-step workflows, planner is no-edit planning, and reviewer is a no-edit review specialist.
• Structured tools keep workflows grounded in repo and GitHub state: changes_load, pr_load, pr_load_review, pr_sync, ticket_load, ticket_sync. OpenCode users can opt into the eight Navigator session and worktree tools.
• Reusable command-template components live in packages/core/components/ and are documented in the components reference.

Prerequisites

• GitHub CLI (gh) must be installed and authenticated. Kompass uses gh for all GitHub operations (PRs, issues, reviews). Install from cli.github.com and run gh auth login.

Installation

For OpenCode, add the adapter package to your config:

{
  "plugin": ["@kompassdev/opencode"]
}

Project config is optional. To start from the published base config:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kompassdev/kompass/main/kompass.jsonc -o .opencode/kompass.jsonc

Kompass loads the bundled base config, then optional home-directory overrides, then optional project overrides. In each location it uses the first file that exists from:

• .opencode/kompass.jsonc
• .opencode/kompass.json
• kompass.jsonc
• kompass.json

The recommended project override path is .opencode/kompass.jsonc.

Kompass Navigator

Navigator is an OpenCode capability for explicitly requested orchestration of native sessions in the current checkout and OpenCode-managed Git worktrees. It is not a subagent mechanism; ordinary delegation should use OpenCode's built-in task tool. Navigator is enabled by default, follows OpenCode Desktop's protocol detection so session creation, prompts, reads, status, and interrupts stay on one compatible API, returns immediately after admitting prompts, and supports parallel sessions. Until OpenCode implements V2 wait, Navigator waits by polling the active-session API locally. It requires OpenCode 1.17.12 or newer.

Configure Navigator and its limits with:

{
  "adapters": {
    "opencode": {
      "navigator": {
        "enabled": true,
        "maxConcurrentSessions": 8,
        "maxReadChars": 20000,
        "maxOutputCharsPerItem": 4000,
        "maxWaitMs": 120000
      }
    }
  }
}

The default runtime names are kompass_worktree_list, kompass_session_create, kompass_session_list, kompass_session_read, kompass_session_send, kompass_session_wait, kompass_session_interrupt, and kompass_worktree_remove. Disable or alias any logical name through tools; an alias is registered exactly as configured.

Set adapters.opencode.navigator.enabled to false to disable all Navigator tools.

Navigator accepts only sessions from the current OpenCode project and only worktrees returned by OpenCode. New sessions inherit the calling session's agent, model, and variant unless explicitly overridden. It rejects self-targeting lifecycle calls, arbitrary directories, unknown V2 agent overrides, main-checkout removal, unmanaged worktrees, and removal while a worktree has active sessions. session_send can switch the target session's agent or model before admitting a steered prompt when the detected OpenCode protocol supports it. session_wait defaults to maxWaitMs, caps requested timeouts at maxWaitMs, and treats timeoutMs: 0 as an immediate snapshot. Navigator never force-removes or automatically cleans up resources after a partial failure.

When OpenCode exposes experimental workspace adapters, Kompass registers a rift workspace adapter backed by its bundled rift-snapshot dependency. Navigator automatically uses that adapter for new_worktree sessions when no startCommand is requested, falling back to Git worktrees otherwise.

Workspace

This repository is the Kompass development workspace.

• packages/core: shared workflows, prompts, components, config loading, and tool definitions
• packages/opencode: the OpenCode adapter package, published as @kompassdev/opencode
• packages/web: docs site and web content
• packages/opencode/.opencode/: generated OpenCode output for review

When changing Kompass itself, keep runtime definitions, bundled config, schema, docs, and generated output in sync in the same change.
