OpenCode 2.0 was released after its public beta, adding a shared background service that connects the terminal, web, and desktop apps through a rebuilt API plus new SDK and background execution features for subagents and shell commands. The update uses a keyboard shortcut to move a foreground task into the background when it runs long. Developers must upgrade manually (for example via opencode upgrade --major or /update), and OpenCode 1.0 plugins and older server-API integrations won’t work without changes.

The post shows how to deploy decision models using llama.cpp on Amazon SageMaker AI, including an OpenAI-compatible text-generation endpoint and an optional SemIf extension for structured option probabilities. It benchmarks SemIf on 231 JevBench tasks and reports the GPU endpoint is 32.2 times faster at p95 than the CPU setup. As a result, you can route requests over a fixed set of options using probability outputs without generating an answer token, and choose CPU for seconds-level latency or GPU for tighter tail latency.
