Free usage exceeded without usage #60328

Description

Description

OpenCode version & interface:
v2.2.1, TUI/CLI

Operating system:
Windows 10 home

The free model used:
deepseek-v4.1-flash-free (also tested with big pickle)

The exact error message:
Free usage exceeded, subscribe to Go [retrying in Xh Xm attempt #1]

When it started and the reset time shown:
Started on October 24, 2026. The client shows a countdown (e.g., 6-7 hours). When the timer reaches zero, the limit is not reset, and the countdown simply restarts with a new time (e.g., 20 hours). This has been happening continuously.

Go or Console credits:
No Go subscription. No Console credits. Using standard free tier.

Additional info:
I have not used OpenCode for several days, but the system still reports the limit as exceeded. I have already updated to the latest v2.2.1, created a new API key, and disabled all MCP servers. My Usage dashboard in the console shows zero/near-zero activity. It looks like a bug with the reset timer or client fingerprint check. Thank You!

    Thanks for the detailed report, @Lizard-gd, and sorry about this. Watching the countdown reach zero only to start again with a new time is frustrating, especially when you haven't used OpenCode for days.

    I think this is a duplicate of #59387, the main thread for free-tier problems. It covers both Free usage exceeded, subscribe to Go and reset times that never take effect. The free usage limit and its reset time are set by the hosted OpenCode Console (Zen) service, not by the app, so a maintainer with account access needs to look at it. Since you're already on the latest v2 (2.2.1), please post your report as a comment on #59387. What you wrote here already covers everything that thread asks for.

    We haven't heard back, so I'm closing this as a duplicate of #59387, the main thread for free-tier problems like this reset that keeps getting pushed back.
