Troubleshooting
Q: Model returns 429 Too Many Requests? A: The free tier has per-IP rate limits. Wait 30–60 seconds, or install dsh-api-key-pool to rotate across multiple keys automatically.
Q: opencode provider doesn't appear in model selector? A: Restart dsh web fully (not just refresh). Verify installation with dsh plugin --profile web list.
Q: Which DSH versions are supported? A: DSH 0.8.0+ with the ctx.llm.registerAdapter API. Older versions may need manual route registration.
Q: Are these models really free forever? A: They use OpenCode Zen's official public free tier. Service availability and quota limits are subject to OpenCode Zen's policies — this plugin is just a client adapter.
How it works
Registers an opencode LLM provider route via ctx.llm.registerAdapter(['opencode'], adapter), exposing the OpenCode Zen free models to session models and sub-agents alike.
