Vibe Coding With Opencode

In this video, I am vibe coding with OpenCode, the open-source AI coding agent that has exploded to over 57,000 GitHub stars. We put this free CLI tool to the test to see if it can compete with paid heavyweights like Claude Code and Cursor. I break down how to set up OpenCode, connect it to the BridgeMind MCP, and use free models like GLM 4.7 and MiniMax M 2.1—which are currently outperforming GPT-5 on web dev benchmarks. We also discover a major restriction: Anthropic has blocked standard API keys from working with OpenCode, forcing a pivot in strategy. Is this the ultimate tool for vibe coding on a budget? 🌐 Links Join the BridgeMind Community (Discord): https://www.bridgemind.ai/discord BridgeMind Website: https://www.bridgemind.ai ViewCreator (What I'm Building): https://www.viewcreator.ai YouTube:    / @bridgemindai   X (Twitter):   / bridgemindai   Instagram:   / bridgemindai   What is BridgeMind?
