Install and sign in

Skills update automatically when a session starts. Rerun the install command when Merv announces an adapter update.
Ask the agent to call project(action="list"), then workflow.status_and_next(project_id). Follow along in the web UI at rapidreview.io/merv.
On a remote machine over SSH, connect with ssh -L 19876:127.0.0.1:19876 user@host first. The browser sign-in callback goes to 127.0.0.1:19876, and the forward is what lets it reach the client running on the remote host.

Skills and reviewers

Skills come from Merv’s hosted, content-versioned catalog and refresh when a session starts. Four read-only reviewer subagents are injected by the plugin (edit and bash denied); each loads the matching review skill through OpenCode’s native skill tool. Subagents get their own child session ids — pass them as caller_session_id for verified reviews. See Reviewer handoff.

Long runs

No client-specific wake recipe is documented for this client yet; the generic one applies — a background shell running merv-runs-wait --url <wait_url>, whose exit wakes the agent. See Long runs.

Caveats

  • OpenCode’s adapter re-exports Kilo’s plugin.js, so it shares Kilo’s behaviours — including that the plugin rewrites mcp.merv on every session. If you point OpenCode at a self-hosted brain by editing mcp.merv, the plugin overwrites it. Use the hosted brain, or configure the self-hosted URL a different way until this is fixed.
