   Thanks for the report! I think this is a duplicate of #59387, the main thread for free tier problems. It lists this exact error message.

   This message comes from OpenCode Desktop v1 (versions 1.x), and v1 no longer supports free models. The v1 Desktop app's built-in updater keeps you on 1.x, so updating from inside the app won't get you to v2. You can check your version under Settings → About. To keep using free models, download OpenCode v2 Desktop by hand from https://opencode.ai/v2/docs.

   Please read it first. Most of these reports are fixed by updating to the latest OpenCode v2 (download it manually from https://opencode.ai/v2/docs if you're on Desktop v1). If you're on the latest v2 and it's still broken, comment on #59387 with the details it asks for so everything stays in one place.

   Closing this as a duplicate of #59387, the main thread for free tier problems. We waited a day for a reply explaining how this was different and didn't hear back.

   This message comes from OpenCode Desktop v1 (1.x), which no longer supports free models. To keep using them, download OpenCode v2 Desktop from https://opencode.ai/v2/docs. The v1 updater won't take you to v2.

   If you still see this on v2 (2.x), please comment on #59387 with your version number and OS. Thanks!
