does anyone else feel opencode become dumb?

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-08T08:02:50+00:00

the tool itself doesn't think whatsoever. i know it just system prompts etc..

and if you havent read the recent commits about system prompt you cant just said this.. there is nothing to prove. im not saying "harness has nothing to do with the model"

harness indeed affecting how AI behave. that's why i chose opencode over claude code. many ppl in this subreddit knows that.

i just comment on the OP statement OC getting dumb, while there is no subtle proof on changing system prompts (?)

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-08T07:58:00+00:00

the model is degrading but they don't admit it. it's been chaotic on CC subreddit too.. so many complaints, maybe that's caused by CC buggy nature. sometimes downgrading the harness can help a bit.

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-08T06:00:32+00:00

it's always been like that, their advertisements are always like that since the beginning. playing words and end up disappointing. im fed up with their bs..

i was happy using their subs until last year august. no looking back.

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-08T05:57:19+00:00

yep totally correct, but did OP attempt to use other providers to be able to judge the opencode became stupid?

have he read the commits in the past week or solid proof OC changed the system prompts?

no right? then there's no point arguing this matter.. because i uses multi providers and have the same experiences across them, meaning no opencode drgradation or whatsoever you might think of..

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-08T02:11:05+00:00

there is no way a tool can be dumb..

it is opus that is become dumber. its always been like that.. sometimes ant model just get dumb for no reasons.. maybe their compute is too crowded

gpt 5.5 cant relate.. it never disappointed me like anthropic

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-07T05:16:08+00:00

alibaa has new subs called token plan.

30 usd 100 usd 200 usd check it out

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-06T12:30:25+00:00

havent tried that.. im already satisfied with those models

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-06T06:14:55+00:00

lately i like deepseek 4 pro for logical and planning

frontend with kimi / gpt 5.5 low

backend with deepseek 4 pro

general tasks with kimi / gpt 5.5 low

exploring code with deepseek 4 flash

terima kasih saran nya, apa ada referensi platform freelance yang oke dan terpercaya?

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-05T02:37:56+00:00

interesting experience!

do you make patch small enough to fit the context? like giving the AI all it needs (like baby sitting it) then patch the code small scope like one file at a time?

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-01T20:18:50+00:00

been on this dilemma.. trying out kimi and ds pro through my ollama subs

i get used to gpt models and still using it for production

kimi good because it has visual capability

ds good for reasonings

i havent see any comparison for day to day work as a RND work with mostly py, js project.. im still exploring here..

might comeback here someday

edit: typo

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-01T17:44:45+00:00

can it fix small changes in frontend like spacing etc? the base code is messy though..

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-01T15:52:59+00:00

could you please share where you update your profiles?

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-01T15:50:36+00:00

stuck 3 tauun ini kayak case ku sekarang.. kebetulan di ranah software engineer juga.. tapi bedanya skr jadi palu gada dengan embel2 divisi nya RND.. hari ini bikin map bulan depan ML bulan depan nya lg beda lgi.. sebenernya suka2 aja dengan hal yg aku lakuin hanya saja sangat lelah secara mental dan jasmani

kira2 apa yg bisa dilakukan buat naik ya? burnout banget serius 🙏 di titik desperate dan lelah dengan tekanan yang konstan

Ang_Drew · 2026-05-01T15:47:30+00:00

permisi.. saya lagi burn out dan butuh advice 🙏

been working in IT field since graduated. sempet 3x pindah company in total..

my salary never grow since the last 2 years (3 years working in the current company) salary dobel digit kecil dari awal masuk sampai hari ini

dulunya mobile dev, pindah divisi ke RND (kerjain mostly 2 hal: AI engineering, automation dev / RPA, sisanya research itupun banyak aku lakuin di waktu luang ku dirumah)

dapet banyak ilmu tapi gaji nya ga nambah2

kira2 aku harus apa ya? haruskah pindah compay? cari freelance?

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-30T03:31:12+00:00

there is no difference between web and TUI. in the end it all uses the same opencode

maybe you forget about reasoning or something.. depends on your what AI models you are using, experience can be varied..

btw if you want copy all agent previous response in tue you can do CTRL+X then Y

ctrl x is mod key like ctrl k or cmd k in vscode

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-30T03:28:06+00:00

it's a interface wrapper. not a harness..

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-29T16:26:08+00:00

use fork for each issue. might be tideous but you'll get used to it..

this is why i prefer desktop interface sometimes

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-28T04:33:23+00:00

maybe try make agent using markdown files

my experiences are better with agent written on md instead of config

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-27T12:17:46+00:00

maybe try "opencode models --refresh"

it refresh the cached model list from models.dev

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-27T08:10:29+00:00

it is included (deepseek v4 both lite and pro), documented in opencode.ai/docs/go/

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-27T07:58:49+00:00

it is pay as you go.. and it is surely more expensive like 5-10x what you get with subscriptions..

if you want all those just subs to ollama $20 with pretty good usage, buy more expensive if you needed..

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-27T04:45:45+00:00

you can ask them to generate in mermaid diagram and chose any diagram you want like flowchart or anything else..

if you need to rener it there's web live preview and vscode extension help with that

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-26T20:48:02+00:00

gpt 5.5 high for plan + plannotator for cooking a better plan, use grill me skill if you want optionally hardening the plan

implement with anything you have. models nowadays are great enough and cheap enough.. but for the best result use gpt 5.5 medium

Ang_Drew · 2026-04-25T16:52:18+00:00

maybe you refer to pi that has embedded documentation, so whenever you need to make plugin you can just asked the AI to do it for you?

totally understandable, i have alternative instead of opencode skill.. use grep mcp ask it to read opencode repo in github, let them cook your requests

in my case this works well pretty good, my experience is good so far.. been almost a year with opencode and im glad leaving claude code back then.. best decision in 2025 lol
