## Quick Install

Install with a single command in OpenCode V2:

```bash
opencode plugin add github:jadmadi/opencode-sila-prime
```

### Manual / Local Install

Copy sila-prime.ts into ~/.config/opencode/plugins/ and restart the TUI.

## The Problem It Solves

Each session starts without the sila knowledge store unless you remember to run the CLI first.

## What It Does

Runs sila prime on the first prompt and injects the cross-tool briefing, plus a /sila command for any sila subcommand.

## Slash Commands

| Command | Description |
| :--- | :--- |
| `/sila` | Run a sila subcommand and post the output (default: prime). |

## Limitations & Safety Rules

Calls the sila CLI. SILA_BIN points at the binary, SILA_PRIME=off disables the briefing, and SILA_PRIME_BUDGET caps it. The session is marked after one attempt, so /sila refreshes on demand.
