A profane, practical guide to running OpenCode with local Ollama models instead of sending code to hosted AI services.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-10 issue.

Field notes

The guide’s workflow begins with Ollama, downloads Qwen 2.5 Coder models, and points OpenCode at a local OpenAI-compatible endpoint on port 11434. It distinguishes a smaller 1.5B model from a 7B model that requires more RAM, and separately recommends nomic-embed-text for codebase search. The page also describes Plan and Build modes, /undo, and an /init command that writes AGENTS.md for repository context.
