Free usage limit persists on v2.2.1 after weeks of inactivity, even with VPN #60684

Description

I haven't used OpenCode for several weeks. After upgrading to v2.2.1 (on CachyOS), every session immediately shows "You've used today's free messages. They reset at 12:00 AM". This happens with both GLM-5.3-Flash Free and DeepSeek V4.1 Flash Free. I tried switching to a VPN (different IP), but the issue persists.

OpenCode version

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install/upgrade OpenCode to v2.2.1 on CachyOS
  2. Start a new session
  3. Try to use any free model (e.g., DeepSeek V4.1 Flash Free)
  4. Error appears immediately: "You've used today's free messages"
  5. Switch network to VPN, retry — same error

    Thanks for the report, @elkabyliano, and sorry about this. Getting the limit message right away after weeks without using OpenCode is frustrating.

    I think this is a duplicate of #59387, the main issue for free-tier problems. It lists this exact message ("You've used today's free messages. They reset at ..."), including when it shows up even though you haven't used anything. The limit is applied by the hosted free tier, not by the app on your machine.

    Possible duplicates and related issues, ordered by likelihood:

    A few things to try first:

    • Update to the latest v2 (currently 2.2.4; you're on 2.2.1). See https://opencode.ai/v2/docs
    • If you're signed in to OpenCode Console or Go, make sure you're using the account and workspace you expect (/connect)

    If it still happens on the latest version, please add a comment on #59387 with the details it asks for (version, OS, model, exact message, reset time shown, whether you have Go or Console credits) so everything stays in one place. Please keep email addresses and account details out of public issues. If you think it's an account problem, email help@anoma.ly.

    The bot will close this issue as a duplicate in 1 day unless you reply explaining how your problem is different.

    I am with the same problem! I love opencode and personally I think it is the best free AI gateway, but it is getting unusable with this error!!!

    We haven't heard back, so I'm closing this as a duplicate of #59387, the main issue for free-tier problems like "You've used today's free messages" appearing when you haven't used anything.

    If you still see it after updating to the latest OpenCode v2, please comment on #59387 with your version, OS, model, the exact message and the reset time you were shown, so everything stays in one place. For account-specific problems, email help@anoma.ly. Thanks for reporting!
