Backend (Cargo.toml)

[dependencies]
tauri = { version = "2", features = ["shell-open"] }
tauri-plugin-shell = "2"

Tauri Commands (Rust -> JS)

// packages/desktop/src-tauri/src/lib.rs
use tauri::Manager;

#[tauri::command]
async fn spawn_opencode(prompt: String) -> Result<String, String> {
    use std::process::Command;
    
    let output = Command::new("opencode")
        .args(["-p", &prompt, "-f", "json", "-q"])
        .output()
        .map_err(|e| e.to_string())?;
    
    String::from_utf8(output.stdout)
        .map_err(|e| e.to_string())
}

#[tauri::command]
fn get_opencode_db_path() -> String {
    // Return path to .opencode/opencode.db
    dirs::home_dir()
        .map(|p| p.join(".opencode/opencode.db").to_string_lossy().to_string())
        .unwrap_or_default()
}

Invoking Commands from SolidJS

import { invoke } from "@tauri-apps/api/core";

async function runTask(prompt: string) {
  const result = await invoke<string>("spawn_opencode", { prompt });
  return JSON.parse(result);
}

Common Gotchas

• Tauri 2.x uses @tauri-apps/api/core instead of @tauri-apps/api/tauri.
• Mobile builds require Xcode (iOS) or Android Studio (Android).
• File access requires tauri-plugin-fs and capability configuration.
• SQLite access requires tauri-plugin-sql.

First-Time Setup (If Not Configured)

Install Tauri CLI

pnpm add -D @tauri-apps/cli
