OpenCode plugin for Bright Data — gives your AI agent reliable web scraping, search, and structured data extraction from 40+ platforms via the Bright Data CLI.

Installation

Add the plugin to your opencode.json (or global ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json):

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "plugin": ["@brightdata/opencode-brightdata"]
}

Then install the Bright Data CLI:

# macOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://cli.brightdata.com/install.sh | bash

# Or via npm (any platform)
npm install -g @brightdata/cli

Authentication

On first use, the agent will prompt you to authenticate. You can also set up in advance:

# Browser login (recommended)
bdata login

# Or set an API key
export BRIGHTDATA_API_KEY=your-api-key

Get an API key at brightdata.com.

If BRIGHTDATA_API_KEY is set in your environment, the plugin automatically passes it to shell commands.
