OpenCode Go vs MiniMax Coding Plan
OpenCode Go already includes MiniMax M3. The question is whether you want it alongside 23 other models or with MiniMax's full allowance behind it.
Updated August 28, 2026 · Independent comparison — OpenCode Go, MiniMax Coding Plan are separate products.
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.
MiniMax Coding Plan
MiniMax's M3 Token Plan subscription
The MiniMax Coding Plan is the coding-facing half of MiniMax's Token Plan, built around MiniMax-M3 and its million-token context. It is a shared multimodal quota: the same subscription pool covers text, image and speech, with video capped per day on the upper tiers. Quota runs on a 5-hour rolling window plus a weekly window, it publishes a recommended concurrent-agent count per tier, and unused quota does not roll over. When the quota window closes you can either wait or let prepaid credits cover the overflow.
Bottom line
OpenCode Go already includes MiniMax M3. The question is whether you want it alongside 23 other models or with MiniMax's full allowance behind it. Choose OpenCode Go if you want M3 but also Grok 4.6, GLM-5.3, Kimi K3 and DeepSeek V4 in the same key; choose MiniMax Coding Plan if m3 is the model, and you want MiniMax's own allowance rather than a slice of a shared pool.
