Hermes cc3976fb7f ideas: editorial sweep — atomization, interlinking, restructuring
- Split competitive-analysis-2026-05.org → TOC + 9 competitor files in
  ideas/competitors/. Dropped date from filename. All competitor UUIDs
  generated, TOC keeps original UUID for backlink continuity.
- Deleted passepartout-economics.org archive (replaced by 27-node KB).
- Inlined 5 'See also' blocks into natural prose (compliance-index,
  first-mover-window, revenue-table, orders-of-magnitude-time,
  native-org-knowledge-base).
- Linked 7 orphan compliance pages back to compliance index + finished
  truncated sentences.
- Linked all 14 Agora requirement docs from topic-relevant pages
  (identity→lisp-machine-security, infrastructure→compute-marketplace,
  social-space→growth-strategy, exchange→agora-contracts, etc.).
- Linked ai-industry-impact from investment-thesis, sufficiency-flip,
  verification-appliance, effects-growth-flywheel (up from 1 to 10+ pages).
- Fixed CREATED timestamps to use git commit dates instead of today.
- Made all links absolute from root (no port inheritance).
- Removed stale agora/docs/ duplicate content.

#+title: OpenCode — AI Coding Agent
#+filetags: :passepartout:strategy:competitive:opencode:
TypeScript/Bun. anomalyco/opencode, 163K★. The dominant open-source coding agent by adoption. Bun runtime, Effect-TS functional core, Solid.js TUI, Turborepo monorepo.
Architecture: Dual LLM runtime — default AI SDK (streamText/generateText) + opt-in native Effect-Schema runtime with 4-axis route decomposition (Protocol/Endpoint/Auth/Framing). 30+ provider plugins. Agent workflow DSL with plan/build agent switching. Agent Communication Protocol (ACP) for inter-agent messaging. Subagents inherit permission boundaries from parent. 18+ built-in tools + custom tools from config. Effect-TS ScopedCache per-project state management.
Safety model: Explicitly documents not sandboxing the agent. Permission system is rule-based (glob matching, actions: allow/ask/deny) and exists as a UX feature, not security isolation. Built-in agents have carefully scoped defaults. Permission rules inherited by subagents.
Data model: SQLite via Drizzle ORM with bun:sqlite or better-sqlite3. Key tables: SessionTable, MessageTable, PartTable. Project model stores worktree, VCS, sandbox config. Config is JSON-chain with remote config fetch.
Self-modification: Agent.generate() interface lets the LLM create new agent definitions — the system grows its own subagent roster. Skills system loads domain-specific knowledge packs dynamically.
Verification: None.
Key gap vs Passepartout: No deterministic safety architecture, no knowledge graph, no Org-mode, no verification/proof system, no neurosymbolic architecture. The permission system is explicitly labeled not security isolation — it's UX, not a gate stack.
