 "title": "Run OpenCode on free keyless coding models",
 "page_title": "How to run OpenCode on free keyless coding models with Bansos Router",
 "summary": "Point OpenCode at a local daemon that serves free coding models with no account or API key.",
 "who": "A developer who wants to try AI coding help in OpenCode without creating accounts or paying for keys.",
 "problem": "Most coding harnesses need a provider account and an API key before they can run any model.",
 "outcome": "OpenCode runs against free models served through the local Bansos Router endpoint.",
 "steps": [
  "Install the package with `npm i -g bansos-router`.",
  "Start the background daemon with `bansos start --bg`.",
  "Configure OpenCode with `bansos setup opencode`.",
  "Check the model list with `bansos models`.",
  "Open OpenCode and choose one of the listed models."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the bansos-router repo, install the CLI, run `bansos start --bg`, then run `bansos setup opencode` for <project path>. Expected output: a configured OpenCode setup and a non-empty list from `bansos models`. Verify by running `bansos doctor` and confirming it reports the daemon as reachable.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The free model list changes as upstreams rotate their free tiers, so a model you picked may stop being offered later.",

 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "npm, to install the package globally",
  "A terminal on Linux, macOS, or Windows",
  "A coding harness you already use, such as OpenCode or Claude Code",
  "Docker, only if you choose the container route"
