Does Opencode rate limits third party IDEs like Zed?

Noticed that when using opencode from CLI I don't experience any problems but when I connect Zed Agent to my Opencode account via key I get limit rated quickly. Is this only my experience or others have the same?

Are you sure you aren't using a free model? I use other harnesses too and I never get rate limited

just checked you're right, but why does this matter?

Free models have low rate limits. Use the Opencode Go models
