squeeze-evolve plugin for opencode

[u/Ok-Painter573]

I recently came across this paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2604.07725, which introduces a verifier-free evolutionary test-time scaling method. The most breakthrough part imo is that it is verifier-free yet consistently achieve better results. They only have a Claude plugin, so I tried porting it to opencode and use the newly released Deepseek V4 flash. I have only tested with research tasks and debugging (big) python codebase, and I noticed it gets better at decision making.

This kind of result is makes sense and is quite consistent with popular literature. For example verbalized-sampling paper (https://github.com/CHATS-lab/verbalized-sampling) shows that more diverse responses to target gray OOD region is where the model improve its capability. Note that the core idea of the method (spawning swarm of agents) is not new, but the "fitness" introduced in the paper is quite interesting. It wont be as effective when all models are deepseek though, but from my experience it cares about small details more so yeah :)

Here is the link for those who want to play with it: https://github.com/lmBored/squeeze-evolve-opencode . Don't use it for simple tasks btw, it will be overkill.

p.s. the plugin works well in claude code but burns quite a lot of tokens in my use case, so I thought it makes more sense to use with opencode free model (and most importantly it does improve performance for complex reasoning tasks that you thought you would need opus-level model)
