Set up

Add Buildkite to OpenCode in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in OpenCode then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Buildkite in Runlayer

    Add Buildkite from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect OpenCode to Runlayer

    Users add the Runlayer Plugin to OpenCode by hand using Runlayer’s generic MCP steps. OpenCode reaches Buildkite’s 71 tools through the Runlayer Plugin’s search and execute tools instead of listing each one.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Buildkite

    Sign in the way Buildkite requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Buildkite from OpenCode

    Buildkite’s approved tools appear in OpenCode. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in OpenCode

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what OpenCode exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Buildkite call from OpenCode passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, OpenCode as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for OpenCode yet, so control happens at the gateway.
