I agree with this statement. Kimi K2.5 is at least as good as the best closed source models today for my purposes. I've switched from Claude Code w/ Opus 4.5 to OpenCode w/ Kimi K2.5 provided by Fireworks AI. I never run into time-based limits, whereas before I was running into daily/hourly/weekly/monthly limits all the time. And I'm paying a fraction of what Anthropic was charging (from well over $100 per month to less than $50 per month).

Beyond agree. Was spending crazy amounts on Claude and it was sporadic at best. Some moments, Opus was a rockstar, others, it couldn’t solve the simplest of problems. Switched to Kimi K2.5 and honestly didn’t think it would do anything other than destroy my code. Crazy enough, it solved the problem I had in less than 60 seconds and I was hooked. Not to say it doesn’t have issues, it does, started repeating itself over and over, forgets things after so much context, etc, though it writes damn good code when it does work properly and for an absolute fraction of the price Anthropic charges.

Saw you wrote that you moved away from Opus 4.5. If you haven’t tried Opus 4.6, there’s only one number different in the name, but the common experience is it’s significantly better.

Have you tried 4.6 as a comparison to Kimi K2.5?

Are you just using the API mode?

API mode and Kimi k2.5 is currently free on OpenCode. Enjoy!
