Best API for Hermes Agent
Full guide →For Hermes Agent, the cheapest tokens come from OpenCode Go ($10 → ~$60 of open-weight usage) which Hermes supports natively; Nous Portal is the most seamless Hermes-native option but pays for convenience, not cheap inference. If your Hermes agent runs always-on and keeps hitting the weekly caps, Standard Compute is the only truly unlimited pick — flat price, no windows, frontier models.
Best API for OpenCode
Full guide →OpenCode's own plan, OpenCode Go ($10 → ~$60 usage), is the natural cheapest-tokens pick — it's built for OpenCode and bundles 12 open-weight models. For always-on or big-context work that would exceed Go's $30/week window, Standard Compute is the unlimited alternative (frontier models, no meter). GitHub Copilot Pro is the cheap route if you specifically want GPT/Claude/Gemini.
Best API for OpenClaw
Full guide →OpenClaw runs background heartbeats and scheduled skills around the clock, so cost-per-dollar and cap headroom matter more than for interactive tools. OpenCode Go's ~6x multiple is the cheapest for moderate use, but a truly always-on OpenClaw setup is the textbook case for Standard Compute's unlimited flat-rate — the meter never runs.
Best API for Cline
Full guide →For Cline, match the plan to your volume: GitHub Copilot Pro ($10) if you want cheap frontier access lightly, OpenCode Go ($10 → ~$60) for the best open-weight value, GLM Coding Plan if GLM-5.2 covers you. For heavy multi-file work that would exhaust any capped plan, Standard Compute is unlimited with no windows.
Best API for Aider
Full guide →Aider is already lean, so the plan choice is mostly about model access: OpenCode Go for cheap open-weight value, GitHub Copilot Pro or OpenRouter for frontier models pay-as-you-go. If you run Aider heavily across big repos, Standard Compute's unlimited flat-rate caps the bill.
Best API for OpenAI Codex CLI
Full guide →Codex CLI is provider-agnostic, so you're not locked to a ChatGPT plan. A ChatGPT Plus/Pro subscription authenticates natively; for cheaper or unlimited volume, point Codex CLI's config at OpenCode Go, OpenRouter, or Standard Compute. If you run Codex tasks in parallel all day, Standard Compute's unlimited flat-rate avoids the window multiplication.
Best API for Pi
Full guide →Pi supports 30+ providers, so any of these work via its models.json. OpenCode Go gives the best open-weight value; Standard Compute is the unlimited pick if Pi is your daily driver. Pi's lean context makes cheaper models go further than in heavier agents.
Best API for Oh My Pi
Full guide →omp's intent routing (default/smol/slow/plan) pairs well with a cheap-model plan for the smol slot. OpenCode Go covers the open-weight tiers cheaply; Standard Compute is the unlimited option for its heavier default/plan slots when you run it all day. Declare either in models.yml.
Best API for Roo Code
Full guide →Roo Code is bring-your-own-key with any OpenAI-compatible provider, and its mode system (Architect, Code, Debug, custom modes) tends to multiply usage — an architect pass plus a code pass plus a debug loop is three model bills for one task. OpenCode Go gives the best open-weight value for moderate use; GitHub Copilot Pro is the cheap frontier route. If Roo Code is your daily driver and the multi-mode passes keep eating capped plans, Standard Compute removes the meter — flat price, no usage limits, no windows.
Best API for Kilo Code
Full guide →Kilo Code takes any OpenAI-compatible API, so the plan question is pure economics. GitHub Copilot Pro ($10) is the cheapest way to get frontier models for lighter in-editor use; OpenCode Go ($10 → ~$60 of open-weight usage) stretches furthest per dollar. For heavy multi-file refactoring sessions that chew through capped plans, Standard Compute is the no-usage-limits option — one flat price, no 5-hour or weekly windows.
Best API for Continue
Full guide →Continue splits into two usage shapes with different right answers. Autocomplete fires constantly with small requests — a local model (Ollama) handles it free and fast, and Continue supports that natively. Chat and inline edits want stronger models: OpenCode Go covers open-weight value, GitHub Copilot Pro covers cheap frontier. If you run Continue's chat/edit heavily all day and want one bill for everything, Standard Compute has no usage limits at a flat price.
