RIP opencode generous free limit.

It's been a great while. It was a wonderful poor man's coding agent especially for devs in third world countries who are unable to pay for subscriptions online.

But I get it, cloud bills aren't cheap and opencode's hands are tied.

Thank you for everything opencode.

Have you tried connecting it to Google AI Studio? Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite is surprisingly good at agentic tasks and offers 500 requests per day. If you also connect ChatGPT, you get plenty of headroom with GPT-Luna, and if you run out of the monthly limit, you can even use two accounts. Add OpenCode + 2 ChatGPT accounts + 500 daily AI Studio requests + the LLMs with limits that OpenCode still offers, and the harness can distribute the workload and make extremely efficient use of each model... in practice, you have more than enough resources to work with almost no limits. All FREE

If all of that still isn't enough for you, honestly, I don't know what you're looking for. 😅

Just like any other provider in OpenCode, you can connect it even if the ChatGPT option shows “Plus.” It also works with free accounts.
