OpenCode Desktop shows “Free usage exceeded” and keeps retrying #58962

Closed as not planned

Description

@XaibHASSAN

I’m using OpenCode Desktop and cannot get a response. It shows these messages:

“Free usage exceeded, subscribe to Go”
“RETRYING IN ....... ATTEMPT#1”

The retry message does not clearly explain the waiting time or when my free usage will reset.

Please check whether this is an actual usage limit or a Desktop issue, and help me restore access.

    Thanks for reporting this, and sorry about the trouble. Not being able to get any response, with only a long retry countdown and no clear reset time, is frustrating.

    The free usage limit and its reset time are tracked for your account by the OpenCode Zen service, not by the Desktop app. The app only shows the error and the retry wait the service sends back, so restarting the app or starting new sessions won't change it. 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 were using, and the exact message and wait time shown. If you've already emailed, the team will get to it, especially now that we have seen it here. Please keep email addresses and other account details out of this public issue and put them in the email instead.

    Others are reporting the same thing, for example:

    The bot will close this issue in 1 day.

    Hi @XaibHASSAN, I'm closing this issue now because billing and account support happens by email, not in GitHub issues. If you still can't use the free models, or you're unsure when your free usage resets, please email help@anoma.ly with the details. Keep your email address and other account information out of this public issue. Thanks for your patience, and sorry for the trouble.
