ClinePass vs OpenCode Go
Two flat-rate subscriptions for open-weight coding models, a penny apart. One publishes its caps in dollars; the other does not publish them at all.
Updated August 28, 2026 · Independent comparison — ClinePass, OpenCode Go are separate products.
ClinePass
Cline's flat-rate pass for open-weight models
ClinePass is Cline's flat-rate pass for open-weight coding models: $4.99 the first month, then $9.99/month. It bundles GLM, Kimi, DeepSeek, MiniMax, MiMo and Qwen models behind one Cline API key, so you never register with the individual labs. Cline advertises roughly 2-5x the throughput of standard API rate limits but does not publish numeric caps, and hitting the ceiling returns a hard ClinePassLimitError rather than degrading to a cheaper model. It is a personal-account product — Cline organization accounts cannot subscribe.
OpenCode Go
OpenCode's $10 open-model subscription
OpenCode Go is a $10/month subscription provider for OpenCode, the open-source terminal-first coding agent. Unlike most passes it publishes its caps in dollars: $12 of usage per 5 hours, $30 per week and $60 per month, alongside per-model request estimates. It covers 24 open and semi-open models and issues an API key that also works outside OpenCode. When you exhaust the cap you are not cut off — you drop to the free models, or spill into a prepaid OpenCode Zen balance if you enable 'Use balance' in the console.
Bottom line
ClinePass and OpenCode Go cost almost exactly the same — $9.99 against $10 — and differ most in transparency and in what happens at the ceiling. ClinePass bundles thirteen open-weight models from six labs behind a Cline API key that now works in other agents too, but publishes no numeric quota (only '2-5x standard API rate limits') and hard-stops with a ClinePassLimitError when you hit it. OpenCode Go covers 24 models including Grok 4.6 and GPT-5.6 Luna, publishes its caps in dollars ($12 per 5 hours, $30 per week, $60 per month) with per-model request estimates, and gives you a soft landing: free models, or an OpenCode Zen balance if you enable 'Use balance'. ClinePass is also personal-accounts-only — Cline organisation accounts cannot subscribe.

The Verdict
Choose ClinePass if...
- ✓You already code in Cline — its VS Code extension, JetBrains plugin, or CLI
- ✓You want the lowest flat rate, and $4.99 for the first month sweetens it
- ✓You rely on Cline's Plan and Act workflow, MCP support, checkpoints and browser checks
- ✓You're on JetBrains — OpenCode has no first-party JetBrains plugin
- ✓You want a curated open-weight-only catalogue without frontier models in the mix
Choose OpenCode Go if...
- ✓You want transparent, itemized usage limits and per-model request estimates
- ✓You want a soft landing at the cap rather than a hard error
- ✓You want the bigger catalogue — 24 models, including Grok 4.6 and GPT-5.6 Luna
- ✓You prefer OpenCode's terminal-first TUI, with VS Code, Cursor and Zed extensions
- ✓You want OpenAI-, Anthropic- and Responses-compatible endpoints to script against

Stop renting one agent's model pool
Every pass on this page locks a model pool to a particular agent or gateway, and each one meters you differently. 1DevTool runs Cline, OpenCode, Claude Code, Codex CLI and Gemini CLI side by side in persistent terminals — point each at whichever pass is cheapest this month, keep your own keys, and get an HTTP client, a 13-engine database client and an embedded browser in the same window.
