## OpenCode Go

- `coding-subs/opencode-go` | qualifies-with-caveat | evidence documented | binding request-rate | category coding subscription
- needs card yes, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-11-03T00:38:57.492Z (live) | stale on 2026-12-04
- url https://opencode.ai/docs/go
- free tier: Go is USD 10 a month, Go Plus USD 40 and Go Teams USD 20 per member a month; two models, Beam Free and Iceman Contributor Free, are Free with an Unlimited monthly limit 'limited time', and free models stay usable after the paid limit is reached | unit: mixed | metered on: request-count | read on: 2026-10-22 | source: [1] | note: the paid limit is a monthly dollar amount per model, not a token count
- per-object cap: not applicable
- retention: not applicable
- egress: not applicable | metered: no
- identity: card | detail: billing details in the console; Go and Go Plus cover a single-member workspace, and Go Teams at USD 20 per member a month covers a workspace with several members
- interface: rest, cli
- limits:
  - request-rate (binding): per-model monthly dollar ceiling; the 5-hour cap is 20 per cent of it, the weekly cap 50 per cent, the month 100 per cent [1]
  - request-rate (binding): no per-request limit is published. The page publishes an estimated request count per model and names the token shape each estimate assumes, for example GLM-5.3/5.2 at 700 input, 52,000 cached and 150 output tokens per request, under 'The estimates use the following token counts per request; actual usage varies' [1]
- interface detail: an API key from the OpenCode console; endpoints are published per model family at opencode.ai/inference/go/{openai,anthropic,google}/
- tooling: OpenCode TUI, or any client pointed at the published endpoint
- composes with: the only plan found in this topic that publishes both a per-model dollar ceiling and the API endpoint that spends it
- reliability: no reliability event recorded
- notes: The GLM-5.3 cap of USD 15 a month at USD 1.40 per 1M input is about 10.7M input tokens with no output.
- evidence note: the ceilings, the reset windows and the endpoints are quoted from the vendor page read. The dollar ceiling has not been converted to tokens by measurement.
- evidence:
  - [1] 2026-10-22: Go USD 10 a month and Go Plus USD 40; usage limits are monthly dollar amounts per model, with 5-hour, weekly and monthly allowances at 20, 50 and 100 per cent; 16 of the 36 Go ceilings are USD 15, 13 are USD 60, two are USD 30, two are USD 80 and three are Unlimited; the page publishes estimated request counts per model against a named token shape and states no per-request limit; exceeded limits fall back to pay-as-you-go credit if enabled, otherwise requests are blocked and the free models remain usable

  - [1] 2026-10-30: the 5-hour, weekly and monthly allowances are still 20, 50 and 100 per cent of each model's monthly dollar limit | capture: sha256:51fe9964a7e0cfc7c9150c69471d7ef790f1863a68639e91f813fdad48b94089 | quote: Each model has the following usage limits: 5-hour — 20% of the monthly limit; weekly — 50%; and monthly — 100%.
  - [1] 2026-10-30: the token shape behind the published request estimates is unchanged | capture: sha256:51fe9964a7e0cfc7c9150c69471d7ef790f1863a68639e91f813fdad48b94089 | quote: GLM-5.3/5.2 — 700 input, 52,000 cached, 150 output tokens per request

## OpenCode Zen free models

- `inference/opencode-zen-free` | fails-identity | evidence measured | binding none | category inference endpoint, access-gated
- needs card no, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-11-04T10:56:11.137Z (live) | stale on 2026-12-05
- url https://opencode.ai/zen/v1
- free tier: the Zen pricing table lists 11 model ids at Free for input and output; 10 of them are also Free for cached read (Big Pickle, Pulse Alpha Free, GLM-5.3-Flash Free, DeepSeek V4.1 Flash Free, Beam Free, Flint 40B Free, MiMo-V2.6-Flash Free, Nemotron 3 Ultra Free, Nemotron 3.5 Lightning Free, Nemotron 3.5 Super VL Free) and Jev 1.13 Free has no cached read price | unit: unlimited | metered on: request-count | read on: 2026-10-22 | source: [1] | note: 'Free' in the price column is not 'reachable': the free tier is restricted to the OpenCode client
- per-object cap: not applicable
- retention: not applicable
- egress: metered: no
- identity: email | detail: an OpenCode account, and the request must originate from the OpenCode client. The 403 body names the restriction: 'OpenCode's free tier can only be used from within OpenCode'
- interface: rest
- limits note: no rate or quota is published: the gate is access, not allowance; some free models are excluded by region (Pulse Alpha Free is not available in the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Ukraine or Venezuela)
- endpoint: https://opencode.ai/zen/v1/chat/completions
- tooling: any OpenAI-compatible client; curl against POST {base}/chat/completions
- composes with: no chain exists for a script: the free tier answers only inside the OpenCode client, so a user is the scarce link and it cannot be substituted
- reliability: the restriction is enforced on the request path, not the account, so no header or key makes an external call succeed
- evidence note: four calls across two sessions with two User-Agents. The 403 is a named policy gate and not an outage, and the body says so.
