Just putting it out there that OpenCode lets you edit your system prompt, and choose a model that isn't bonkers expensive.
{
"agent": {
"subagent-coder-mini": {
"description": "Assign this subagent for small, well-defined tasks performed quickly",
"mode": "primary",

(I actually think OpenCode UX sucks, but there isn't much else out there that's better. Aider has been virtually abandoned by the one maintainer (no shade intended, it just is what it is); a fork of Aider looks promising but it's not necessarily the experience you want; there's a dozen VSCode plugins but we don't all wanna use VSCode. I expected there'd be way more usable agents out there, but there isn't)
- akersten 6mo agowill using claude via opencode get me banned this week or is that not until next week?
- 0xbadcafebee 6mo agoOpenAI subscriptions are allowed with OpenCode, Anthropic subscriptions are not
- Mashimo 6mo agoYou will not get banned if you use the API. AFAIK you can't use the subscription with other harnesses. That is how I understood it.
- yieldcrv 6mo agolocal agentic coding context windows are too small and default opencode tries to scan every file uses up all the context and messes up local is pipedream at the moment I’m glad some people get utility out of it though, if this was still 2023-2024 I would mess around and make it work, but corporate policies in enough places have updated to use the leading closed source models and clouds for agentic coding
- crooked-v 6mo agoDeepseek 4 Flash isn't a local model, unless you've got a dozen high-end GPUs running.
- anticensor 6mo agoNot a dozen but more like four.
- itemize123 6mo agosame, i really dislike opencode's UX. there are a lot of agents harnesses actually. check out terminal bench 2.0 for example. dirac.run seems to be make the rounds earlier
- crooked-v 6mo agoThe hashing and other optimizations in Direct seem kind of brilliant in a "it was obvious (once someone already thought of it)" kind of way, but the active avoidance of MCP seems weird when that and agent plugins are by far the easiest ways to reuse skills now.

- 0xbadcafebee 6mo agoIt's funny you say that... I just finally tried it this morning, since it seems more polished now. There's no way to disable providers, so I'm stuck scrolling through over 100 models I will never use, to find the 12 I will use. So also crappy UX!
