What's the benefit of using OMP over OpenCode?

Just the sheer amount of options in OMP overwhelmed me. But I also use both via ACP in Zed so the CLI itself doesn't matter much.

I'm chime in here as another Pi user, starting with OMP and then just ditching it for vanilla Pi + MCP/LSP from OMP as well as pi-cursor-sdk to get access to Composer 2.5 through Pi. I use this as my 'fast' research & report (through my project/codebase) or boilerplate/tightly-specced implementation agent that's available to my planning/orchestrator (GPT 5.5 if complex backend work, Fable/Opus if wanting the extended context or view/design heavy work).

Pi has been great in this role, as well as occasional use not as a sub-agent but by my own human hands when I want to interact with the Composer 2.5 model directly... which I do much less these days as I just use Codex 5.5 /fast. Pi's great though.

OMP is a fork of Pi[0], which is my preferred harness. Feels solid and minimal. I don't even use any extensions, skills, or modifications. Usually don't even use an AGENTS.md. Just create a small spec.md and/or plan.md for most experiments.

Almost exactly the same here but I maintain a large committed design.md and a never committed plan.md
I ditched Opencode for OMP. It's more feature packed, well put together, and gives me better results with some steering. Love it
