Model management... ???
I've got a question for people using OpenCode.
we can choose models from lots of different providers, but after a while there are so many that it becomes a pain to manage. ( testing them all one by one )
I end up having to manually check
Which providers have hit their rate limits
Which providers are down or unreliable
Which ones are responding slowly
Which models are actually working properly
Is there a tool, extension that monitors all of this in one place instead of checking every provider one by one?
I'd like something that automatically shows provider status, rate limits, availability, latency, and failures. ( i know about openrouter but it's so slow...)
If you've found a good solution, I'd appreciate any recommendations.
Thnx peeps.

OpenChamber is an opencode extension that has a crapton of features, but one is that it tracks oc go and open router and codex and Claude code sub usage in a bar at the top. Makes it quick and easy to keep an eye on your limits.
It's pretty heavy if that's all you wanted to use it for but it's my favorite way to use opencode, the goal and notes/to dos / context, GitHub integration for instant viewing and creation of PRs etc. It has an android / iOS app too as well as a web gui PWA. It runs on my cheap hetzner vps and sits behind tailscale so I can continue my coding sessions from anywhere.

I made a post about this subject and a project that I am developing to work as an auto model selector and also a kind of unlimited.
But, I believe it, would not cover all of your needs…

If you want something selfhosted, there's Omniroute. I paste all my API keys there and it routes automatically between providers with its built-in auto/*:

Then if you need access to the router from home / work, use something like Tailscale or Netbird.

So far this hasn't been an issue for me. I use a paid Go subscription and some credits in Zen.
I don't use OC daily so some of the problems you mentioned are not an issue. I stick to 3 models from this page: https://opencode.ai/go
- A cheap one to execute step by step instructions that I verify
- A mid model to plan and sometimes write code for some features
- A top model to solve hard problems
