Feature Request: Click file paths to open in IDE

When Claude edits or creates files, it would be great if I could click the file path to open it directly in my IDE — with the project folder already loaded.

Right now when Claude says "I've created these 5 files", I have to manually copy the path, switch to my IDE, and Cmd+P to find it. Kind of defeats the purpose of having a nice GUI.

Suggestion

Make file paths clickable → opens IDE with project root + jumps to the file.

Since Opcode already knows which project folder I'm working in, it could do something like:

code /path/to/project /path/to/project/src/file.ts:42
cursor /path/to/project /path/to/project/src/file.ts:42

This opens the IDE at the project root (so the file tree is correct) and navigates to the specific file/line. The -r flag can reuse an existing window if one is already open.

Could add a simple setting to pick your IDE command (or auto-detect from PATH).

This would make Opcode feel like a proper command center instead of just a viewer. Love the UI otherwise!
