CLAUDE CODE LOCKS YOU INTO ONE PROVIDER AND REQUIRES A PAID SUBSCRIPTION JUST TO TRY IT. OpenCode doesn't. 100% open source. Free to install. Connect any of 75+ model providers: GPT, Claude, Gemini, GitHub Copilot, or run entirely local models through Ollama with zero API cost. 160,000+ GitHub stars and climbing—now ahead of Claude Code's own star count. Same terminal workflow. Same MCP ecosystem. Same multi-file editing. The barrier to entry just disappeared.(CyrilXBT)
