its not that innocent.

a 200 dollar a month customer isn't trying to get around paying for tokens, theyre trying to use the tooling they prefer. opencode is better in a lot of ways.

tokens get counted and put against usage limits anyway, unless theyre trying to eat analytics that are CC exclusive they should allow paying customers to consume to the usage limits in however way they want to use the models.

Anthropic is offering a steep discount in their plans. I highly doubt they want you using it in a harness where you can trivially switch away when someone else releases a better model

Funny, because you CAN switch Claude Code to other providers and models easily.

Anthropic is just a deeply "mis-dev-anthropic" company.

I use opencode everyday; can you explain how claudecode is much different and what it lacks?

I think I agree, but it's their business to run however they like. They have competition if we don't like it.

A $200/m max subscriber using OpenCode and not wanting to use API keys with pay-per-token pricing is very clearly trying to get around paying for tokens.

Is there any limits to that users 200/month? Why should they not be able to use the limits to the extent from other tools?

If openclaw chews my 200/month up in 15 days... I don't get more requests for free
