Integrating OpenCode Terminal with Sage Intacct Data via CData CLI

Justin Floyd
Product Business Analyst

CData CLI gives AI coding agents direct, command-line-native access to CData Drivers across hundreds of data sources, allowing agents to manage licenses, configure connections, run SQL queries, and explore schema metadata, all without leaving the terminal.

OpenCode is an open source AI coding agent from Anomaly that brings AI assistance directly to your terminal, desktop, or IDE without storing any of your code or context data. It supports over 75 LLM providers, including Claude, GPT, Gemini, and local models, and can run multiple agent sessions in parallel on the same project, each with its own context. Its support for integrations, AGENTS.md configuration files, and a TypeScript/JavaScript plugin system makes it well-suited for structured, tool-driven workflows, making it a natural fit for connecting to external data sources through CData CLI. By describing your data goals in plain language, OpenCode can handle the full setup process from driver configuration and license activation to connection creation and query execution, without manual intervention at each step.

This article details step-by-step directions for how to connect Sage Intacct data to OpenCode Terminal through CData CLI.

Prerequisites

About Sage Intacct Data Integration

CData provides the easiest way to access and integrate live data from Sage Intact. Customers use CData connectivity to:

Access Sage Intacct without worrying about API updates or changes.
Access custom objects and fields in Sage Intacct with no extra configuration steps involved.
Write data back to Sage Intacct using embedded Web Services credentials with Basic authentication.
Use SQL stored procedures to perform functional operations like approving or declining vendors, inserting engagements, and creating or deleting custom objects or fields.

Users frequently integrate Sage Intact with analytics tools such as Tableau, Power BI, and Excel, and leverage our tools to replicate Workday data to databases or data warehouses.

Getting Started

Step 1: Download the skill (one-time setup)

Always use CData CLI with the official skill.

The official CData CLI Skill is available on GitHub and installs through npx skills in the terminal:
```
npx skills add CDataSoftware/cli-skills
```
Follow the prompts in the terminal to install for OpenCode.

Step 2: Set up the project directory

Create a project directory to contain all project files.

Navigate to directory within the terminal and start a session with the opencode command:

Step 3: Establish the driver and connection

Describe what you want to accomplish in this session with the CLI and Sage Intacct data.

I would like to build a command line app that connects to Sage Intacct and checks for updates from Customer. Make sure to include data from important columns like Name and TotalDue.

This prompt automatically loads the skill and kicks off the following process. You can always manually prompt the agent for each of the following steps.

Driver setup: OpenCode checks for an existing CData Sage Intacct driver, or searches and downloads a new one:

```
cdatacli drivers list
```
```
cdatacli drivers search Sage Intacct
```


cdatacli drivers download --artifact-id <artifact-id>

Activation: Activate the Sage Intacct driver with a single command for a trial or full license:

 cdatacli drivers activate Sage Intacct --name "<name>" --email "<email>" --trial

cdatacli drivers activate Sage Intacct --name "<name>" --email "<email>" --key "<product-key>"

Establish the connection: Check for existing Sage Intacct connections or create a new one:

```
cdatacli connection list
```

cdatacli drivers activate Sage Intacct --name "<name>" --email "<email>" --trial

Create a Sage Intacct skill (if applicable): CData provides driver instructions for popular sources. You can use these to generate a source-specific skill file that guides the agent through best practices for the driver.

Run the following command and save the output to your skills directory, either at the project level or globally. (Note: If you receive a "No instructions available for Sage Intacct" message, no driver instructions exist for this source. You can continue using the main driver skill.)
```
cdatacli drivers skill Sage Intacct > ~/skills/cdata-Sage Intacct/SKILL.md
```

Step 4: Query Sage Intacct data

With the CData driver fully configured, your agent can now execute queries and write code against live Sage Intacct data:


cdatacli query sql --connection <my_Sage Intacct_connection> --sql <SELECT * FROM table>

Query Sage Intacct data directly from your terminal with CData CLI

OpenCode and CData CLI together give your AI coding agent a direct path to live Sage Intacct data without custom middleware, scheduled syncs, or manual setup at each step. Describe your goal, and the agent handles driver configuration, connection setup, and query execution from start to finish in the terminal.
