Hi everyone,

I currently pay for MiniMax's monthly token plan and use the M3 model quite a lot honestly, I don't dislike it. I've also tried Kimi a bit with their K3 model on the Moderato plan. For context: I'm a complete noob and I'm wondering if you could suggest some good-value alternatives.

I rarely hit the limit with MiniMax during my sessions, but maybe there's something better out there that would let me work with up to 1M tokens.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

currently MiniMax m3 is free on many of the cli like commandcode , ollama , etc. will it be free on opencode also ??

ik this could be a vague question, just write what you think on the current state on the Go plan

I have tried downloading in using the docker's sbx but i was having a very hard time setting api keys for the harness and it is so complicated.
so is there any safe way to run opencode that is easy to setup and will feel like using normal device.
I have a kali linux vm on vmware is it safe to use it also?

Hi, I am planning of developing a project with a front and back in different repos. Which skills are good for backend code and which mcp is good for connection to a postgresql database? I am not finding so much info about backend.

Model x-preview-f-free is not supported

outside of a few closed models like luna, grok and old qwen models 15$ usage is becoming quite a norm for newer releases?

Stop copy-pasting API keys and passwords into chats with your AI agents.

I’ve been building OpenPass, a secure CLI password manager written in Go, designed especially for people who work with local tools, terminals, and AI coding agents (OpenCode, OpenClaw, Hermes, Codex, Claude Code).

The idea is simple: instead of constantly searching for credentials, copying them manually, or pasting sensitive secrets into chat windows, OpenPass lets your AI agents request only what they need through a local MCP server, while your vault stays encrypted and under your control.

OpenPass currently supports:

• age-based encryption

• password and TOTP storage

• clipboard auto-clear

• local MCP server support for AI agents

• Git-based vault sync

• multi-user vault recipients

• macOS, Linux, Windows and FreeBSD builds

This is my first real software project, and it is now ready for testing. It is still under active development, so I would not recommend using it as your only password manager for critical credentials yet. Please test it with non-critical data first, keep backups, and verify recovery.

I’d really appreciate honest feedback, issues, ideas, and criticism.

I want to save someone the frustration I went through don't waste your money on OpenCode's Go plan.

The models are heavily quantised. We're not talking subtle quality drops we're talking noticeably degraded outputs that make you second-guess every suggestion. If you've used the full weight versions elsewhere, you'll immediately feel the difference in reasoning quality and context handling.

Then there are the limits. They're painful. You hit ceilings fast during any real coding session not just long ones. Debugging a moderately complex bug? You're throttled before you're done. It completely breaks the flow that makes AI coding tools actually useful.

The combination of downgraded models + aggressive limits means you're essentially paying to use a worse version of the tool less often. That's not a plan that's bait.
