<p>Opencode is changing on the daily right now, today I noticed the word <code>low</code> pop up in Orange text in my opencode window. Looking into this they are exposing <a href="https://opencode.ai/docs/models/#variants" style="--favicon-url: url(&#39;/assets/markata/link-avatars/opencode.ai.ico&#39;);" data-favicon="/assets/markata/link-avatars/opencode.ai.ico" class="has-avatar has-avatar-before">variants</a> to the user. This allows you to change between fast or slow and thinking, the later taking more time to prepare before doing an action.</p> <figure> <a href="https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/0b6bfe5e-41b0-4e44-8c5a-ff88739a770e.mp4" class="glightbox-link"><video autoplay loop muted playsinline controls preload="metadata" class="md-video" poster="https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/0b6bfe5e-41b0-4e44-8c5a-ff88739a770e.webp?h=675&w=1200"><source src="https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/0b6bfe5e-41b0-4e44-8c5a-ff88739a770e.mp4" type="video/mp4">Swapping Variants in opencode</video></a> </figure> <p>It looks like this toggle may have been here for awhile and I’m just now discovering it.
