I’m not really here to defend opencode (or bash it, who has the time?), but in setting up SDD paired with the right tools to both make deterministic black boxes out of certain actions, paired with subagents. I have ran with opencode and qwen 3.2 on a 5090 and I’m getting results on a production codebase of golang where a review of changes from Claude had no changes but acceptance of the solution.

I may be missing some aspect of where the local llm’s are losing, but I’m content with draining my local tokens and treating the frontier models like a less junior SWE.
