this isn't true

it will use whatever small model there is in your provider

we had a fallback where we provided free small models if your provider did not have one (gpt nano)

some configs fell back to this unexpectedly which upset people so we removed it

I can tell that you’re doing all of this in the name of first-use UX. It’s working: The out of the box experience is really seamless.

But for serious (“grown up”) use, stuff like this just doesn’t fly. At all. We have to know and be able to control exactly where data gets sent. You can’t just exfiltrate our data to random unvetted endpoints.

Given the hurt trust of the past, there also needs to be a communication campaign (“actually we’re secure now”), because otherwise people will keep going around claiming that OpenCode sends all of your data to Grok. This would really unnecessarily hurt the project in the long run.
