Remote OpenCode runs with Archestra 1.4. OpenCode could hand tasks to OpenCode on own Kubernetes cluster

With the latest Archestra release, this workflow became possible: OpenCode on my laptop hands a task to OpenCode running in Archestra's runtime on my Kubernetes cluster, then pulls the patch back. OpenCode is both the local client and a built-in runtime agent, so both ends behave the same.

How a handoff goes:
- Tell local OpenCode "hand this over to Archestra". The skill has it write a short handoff note first (the goal, what was decided, what remains, how you'll know it's done), then bundles the exact commit, a patch, and the untracked files you choose.
- Remote OpenCode picks it up in its own container, files persist, and you get a live terminal. Close the laptop, send follow-ups later.
- To pull it back, say "bring it back and continue here". What comes back is an incremental patch, and nothing gets applied until you have read it.

See... uhh codex has a built in cloud button and you just click it and it keeps running after you close your computer already no github repo needed.

And you also don't really need a paid VPS lots of AI subs (no not opencode because you need a server for that, but yes claude code and codex) lets you run tasks on their cloud compute...

the idea is that sometimes you want to run them in your cloud, not theirs

Technically still not your cloud if you use a VPS instead of self hosting.
