For some reason opencode does not have option to disable streaming http client, which renders some inference providers unavailable...

There's also a request and a PR to add such option but it was closed due to "not adhering to community standards"

They are not blacklisted. You are allowed to use the API at commercial usage pricing. You are just not allowed to use your Claude Code subscription with OpenCode (or any other third‑party harness for the record).

I dont understand this, what is the difference, technically!

Subscription = token that requires refreshing 1-2x/day, and you get the freedom to use your subscription-level usage amount any way you want.

API = way more expensive, allowed to use on your terms without anthropic hindering you.

Was it not obvious what the OP meant by blacklisted?

No, it was not? For those whose native language is English, "blacklisted" implies Claude API will not allow OpenCode.

The reason I'm switching again next month, from Claude back to OpenAI.

Yeah, support the company that promised to help your government illegally mass surveil and mass kill people, because they support a use case slightly better than the non-mass-murdering option.

You can still use OpenCode with the Anthropic API.

Yep. That's what I do. Just API keys and you can switch from Opus to GPT especially this week when Opus has been kind of wonky.

I pay $100/mo to Anthropic. Yesterday I coded one small feature via an API key by accident and it cost $6. At this rate, it will cost me $1000/mo to develop with Opus. I might as well code by hand, or switch to the $20 Codex plan, which will probably be more than enough.

I'd rather switch to OpenAI than give up my favorite harness.

Both of them promised to help their government illegally mass surveil and mass kill people. One of them just didn't want it done to US citizens.

I'm not a US citizen, so both companies are the same, as far as I'm concerned.
