FuXi vs OpenCode (2026): Which Vibe Coding App Is Better?

Both are popular terminal coding agents. Here is how FuXi and OpenCode stack up on price, strengths and weaknesses, and which one we would pick.

FuXi

Provider-agnostic terminal coding agent positioned as a bring-your-own-model Claude Code alternative

7.0 /10

Pricing: Freemium

Pros

Feature-rich single static binary: 50+ tools, LSP diagnostics, Jupyter, browser automation, MCP client, durable sessions with checkpoints
Unusually transparent evaluation practice — publishes a reproducible, self-run benchmark against Claude Code with explicit caveats instead of a marketing score

Cons

Source code is proprietary despite living on GitHub — the repo hosts only docs, installers and the issue tracker, not the implementation
Installs via curl-pipe-to-shell, and ships a flag that bypasses all permission checks — treat it the way you would any command with root-level reach

8.4 /10

Pricing: Open source

Pros

Free and open source; any model provider
Claude Code-style extensibility
Fast, well-designed terminal UI

Cons

You pay the model provider directly; costs vary with usage
Smaller community of ready-made extensions

Our pick

OpenCode edges it with a score of 8.4 versus 7.0. OpenCode is the better fit if you value: free and open source; any model provider, claude code-style extensibility. Choose FuXi instead if you need: feature-rich single static binary: 50+ tools, lsp diagnostics, jupyter, browser automation, mcp client, durable sessions with checkpoints, unusually transparent evaluation practice — publishes a reproducible, self-run benchmark against claude code with explicit caveats instead of a marketing score.
