serious question: I've already got a opencode harness running on a local model. It's easily installable via the insecure bash command. It's already tailored with a couple of plugins and with a proper TODO.md and planning, I can get it to loop fine with proper attention to its pratfalls on vague/non-determinant language. It's all running on a AMD 395+ Qwen3-Coder-Next model with ~256k context. opencode has a webui I can put behind a password protected endpoint and keep it busy from anywhere I need to via a simple nginx proxy.

How does this go above and beyond this straightforward opensource, open weights and relatively cheap setup? Do you just get more tokens from SOTA models? Can anyone rationally say the products of token production are quality and secure?

You know how OpenCode can be prompted to modify itself when you want to improve it in some way? This just automates that kind of thing.
