   Thanks for reporting this, and sorry about the trouble. Being told your free usage is used up, with a retry countdown of almost 18 hours, when you've barely used it is frustrating.

   The free-model allowance, its reset time and the retry countdown are counted and enforced for your account by the OpenCode Zen (Console) service. The OpenCode app only shows the error the service sends back. Billing and account support isn't handled in GitHub issues, so please email help@anoma.ly with the details: roughly when it started, which free model(s) you used and the exact error. If you've already emailed, the team will get to it, especially now that we've seen it here.

   Please keep your email address, account information and any payment details out of this public issue and put them only in the email.

   Other people are seeing the same thing at the moment, for example:

   • Persistent "Free usage exceeded, subscribe to Go" error – limit never resets #58902: the same error, and the limit never resets
   • Free usage exceeded on all free models with a long retry countdown on macOS and Windows #58874: free usage exceeded on all free models, with a long retry countdown
   • Free usage exceeded on all free models even with no use. #58876: free usage exceeded on all free models without any use
   • Free usage exceeded, subscribe to Go #58655: the same error, with a ~15h retry right after starting to use OpenCode

   The bot will close this issue in 1 day.

   Hello OpenCode team,

   I am experiencing the following free-usage error with OpenCode Zen:

   Free usage exceeded, subscribe to Go retrying in 59769s - attempt #1

   Environment

   • OS: Windows 11
   • OpenCode version: 1.18.18
   • Installation method: Global npm package
   • Provider: OpenCode Zen
   • Retry countdown: 59,769 seconds (approximately 16 hours and 36 minutes)

   Troubleshooting performed

   1. Verified the installation using where.exe opencode.
   2. Checked the version using opencode --version.
   3. Ran opencode uninstall --dry-run to inspect the files that would be removed.
   4. Uninstalled OpenCode using its official uninstaller.
   5. Verified that where.exe opencode no longer finds the executable and npm list -g opencode-ai returns an empty list.

   The error appears to be related to the free-usage quota or server-side cooldown, rather than a corrupted local installation.

   Questions

   1. Is this extended cooldown expected for free OpenCode Zen models?
   2. Should access be restored when the countdown expires?
   3. Could you clarify whether this behavior is caused by a usage limit, a quota-reset issue, or another restriction?

   Thank you for investigating this issue.

   Thanks for reporting this, and sorry about the trouble. Being told your free usage is used up, with a retry countdown of almost 18 hours, when you've barely used it is frustrating.

   The same error currently shows up:

   • regardless of the model selected; and
   • before any usage whatsoever.

   So it's not really frustrating so much as just delete-the-software level ineptitude.

   Hi @arunthomasvtt, I'm closing this issue because billing and account questions, including free-usage limits, are handled by email rather than on GitHub. If you still have the "Free usage exceeded" problem, please email help@anoma.ly with the details, and the team will look into it there. Please keep account and payment details out of this public issue. Thanks for your patience, and sorry for the trouble.
