Beam 1.0 Is Free in OpenCode and Command Code

Beam 1.0 is now available for free in OpenCode and Command Code. It’s a reasoning model for coding and agent workflows, with a context window of up to 1 million tokens. Command Code model page (s'ouvre dans un nouvel onglet) · Reflection’s announcement (s'ouvre dans un nouvel onglet).

How good is it? There’s no verified, apples-to-apples benchmark here showing Beam beats comparable coding models. Early OpenCode community feedback (s'ouvre dans un nouvel onglet) is mixed, including reports of incorrect commands and unwanted file changes. These are individual reports, not controlled tests.

Budget impact: Free access makes Beam worth testing before paying for another model. Command Code says access is available across its plans and subscriptions, subject to availability. A huge context window can help with large codebases, but doesn’t guarantee correct output. Check the current access terms before relying on it.

Verdict: worth a controlled test, not blind trust. Try a small task, inspect every diff and run tests. Compare it against a model you already use, counting fixes and retries—not just price. Check the OpenCode model list (s'ouvre dans un nouvel onglet) and Command Code model page (s'ouvre dans un nouvel onglet) for current terms.
