OpenCode free models are blocked from outside calls again
. This time they sent takedown letters. A GitHub account that has never shown up on OpenCode’s official org member list blasted the same notice to three projects: 9router #4182, OmniRoute #14227, and hermes-agent #116494. All three titles are identical: licensed / provisioned solely for use from within OpenCode. The letter says OpenCode Free models are only for use inside OpenCode. Third-party gateways, routing proxies, or resale violate their ToS. They want written confirmation within 7 days that every oc/ related bit of code and docs is gone, or they’ll file a formal GitHub report and hand it to lawyers. hermes-agent already pulled OpenCode Free. OmniRoute and 9router haven’t touched it yet. Doesn’t change much — OpenCode already locked the endpoints, so external calls don’t work anyway.
Google just shipped a new agent. It's called CC.
This one isn't a personal agent. It's a family group agent. It gets its own Google account and links up to 6 family members, then helps run the whole household. It can read everyone's email in the group, sort out schedules, set up shared to-dos and lists. Pretty much everything you'd expect from an agent, plus it remembers the family's preferences. Runs on gemini-flash. Whitelist only for now, and you need a US personal Gmail. labs.google/cc
Claude appeal rejected.
Won't refund the subscription either. I'm half convinced the appeal email is itself phishing, because I'm pretty sure they log the IP. DHH came to Shenzhen recently and showed how he uses Claude Code over there. That's the safest way now, honestly: run Claude Code on an overseas machine, connect through Tailscale, never use it locally. So I need to rent an overseas box with a residential IP, and register and log into Claude there.
Sharing my current mobile only workflow.
Until late September it was the usual setup: parked in front of my laptop, terminal open, bossing pi around, fanning out subagents, then eyeballing diffs myself and filing the PR. Glued to the chair all day, every day. Late September I moved the whole thing to my phone, Hermes runs the show, pi takes the orders. My back is very grateful. Three weeks in, still no regrets. Stack: Hermes on flagship brains (gpt-6-astra / opus-5.5), pi on mid-tier (ds-v4.1-flash / sonnet / terra) with as few plugins as possible, the two talking over a2a. Hermes reads the issues, slices them into small tasks, spins up a worktree for each one, and dispatches a pi into it. When a pi finishes it pings Hermes, who decides: ship the PR or bounce it back for rework. I get back from a full day of being a tourist, or just wake up, and a dozen PRs are sitting there done. Pretty sweet. The catch is how black-box the whole thing is. My emotional arc has been a rerun of early vibe coding, except back then I at least read the diffs. Now even that goes to a flagship model. Boxes all the way down. If you don't have data anxiety, grok-bot and chatgpt-dot basically ship this out of the box, grok-cli and codex built in, native agent-to-agent comms. Downside: your code lives on their servers, everything's moderated, and one ban takes it all with it.
