Yes it’s called OpenCode and today I was surprised to learn it works with Claude Pro/Max subscriptions: https://opencode.ai/docs/

https://github.com/QwenLM/Qwen3-Coder is the gemini code fork i was referring to i think. Not positive

Wait no, looks like that's https://github.com/QwenLM/qwen-code

Some users who signed up for pro ($50 p.m.) are reporting further limitations than those advertised. >While they advertise a 1,000-request limit, the actual daily constraint is a 7.5 million-token limit. [1] Assumes an average of 7.5k/request whereas in their marketing videos they show API requests ballooning by ~24k per request. Still lower than the API price.

Had a similar experience. I got rate limited as well even when I well below 1M tokens. When its working, it's nice, but can't use it as a replacement for Cursor until higher rate limits are granted.

Please read my full comment. Cerebras is jumping on a marketing faux-pas by Anthropic. I say this for the point you bring up about monthly session limits - no one on the Claude subreddit has yet to report being hit by this despite many going way over that. These are checks to deal w/ abusive accounts.

> no one on the Claude subreddit has yet to report being hit by this despite many going way over that Because it hasn't gone into effect yet: "From August 28, we’ll introduce new weekly limits that’ll mitigate these problems while impacting as few customers as possible."

I already explained why it's not a legitimate market differentiation.

At full pace that means 62 mins until you hit the daily cap.

Reminds me of high write speed on SSD (1.5 GB/s continuously to TLC) means 1 TB SSD warranty expires instead of 5 years just in less than 5 days (600 TB written).

Or comcast's 1 gb service with a 1TB limit, which means you hit the limit in 140 minutes at full rate.

How is this even possible?

They make frisbee-sized CPUs.

Indeed. Pretty much all silicon today comes on 12" or so wafers, broken into chip sized pieces, and each chip is tested and the ones that failed are thrown away.

Cerebras uses the entire 12" and builds in redundancy so that with current defect rates a large fraction of the wafers are usable. This allows a huge level of parallelism, a large amount of on board ram, and the removal of the need to move data on/off the wafer. So the available bandwidth is insane and inference is mostly bandwidth limited.
