The 24-hour limit doesn't disappear! #59450
Description
I hit the 24-hour limit and waited for 24 hours to pass, then I sent ONE message and got the 24-hour limit message again. This happened to me TWICE.
It seems that if, after 24 hours, I send a message in an old session, I hit the limit again instantly; I have to create a new session to avoid this bug, but then I lose all my work.
I’ve already tried switching models (I use the free ones) and it didn’t work; I’ve already switched computers, restarted the modem, tried resetting the sent message and sending it again, and created new sessions, but nothing works.
I use the standard free version of OpenCode and some free models.

Thanks for the report, @Kapie77, and sorry about the trouble. Losing access to an existing session's work is really frustrating.
I think this is a duplicate of #59387. That is the main thread for free tier problems, including limits that don't reset, and maintainers have asked for these reports to go there so everything is in one place.

Before commenting there, please check your version with
opencode --version, or in the Desktop app under Settings → About. Versions0.x/1.xare OpenCode v1, which no longer supports free models. #59387 explains how to update to v2 (the v1 Desktop updater keeps you on 1.x, so v2 has to be downloaded from https://opencode.ai/v2/docs). If it still happens on v2, please add your version, OS and model to #59387. As described in #59280, forking the old session (opencode run -s <sessionID> --fork ...) may let you keep your history in a new session.The bot will close this issue as a duplicate in 1 day unless you reply explaining how your problem is different.

The v1 Desktop updater keeps you on1.x, so download v2 manually.If you still have the problem on the latest v2, please comment on #59387 with the details listed there.
