I've used opencode and the remote free models they default to aren't awful but definitely not on par with Gemini CLI nor Claude. I'm really interested in trying to find a way to chain multiple local high end consumer Nvidia cards into an alternative to the big labs offering.
replyKimi K2.5 is pretty good, you can use it on OpenRouter. Fireworks is a good provider, they were giving free access to the model on OpenCode when it first released.
replyWhen you say you use local model in OpenCode, do you mean through the ollama backend? Last time I tried it with various models, I got issues where the model was calling tools in the wrong format.
replyThat's exactly why I'm asking! I'm still mystified about whether I can use ollama at all. I'm hopeful that the flexiblity might become interesting at some point.
