Models
Recommended Providers
Section titled “Recommended Providers”- ChatGPT Codex models use the
chatgpt-codex/<model-id>form, for examplechatgpt-codex/gpt-5.6-sol,chatgpt-codex/gpt-5.6-terra, orchatgpt-codex/gpt-5.6-luna.- The integration is ChatGPT-backed.
- Selecting a GPT-5.6 model from
/modelopens the reasoning-effort picker;/reasoningopens it again later.
The picker shows reasoning controls only when the selected model supports them.
reasoning_effort and reasoning_summary can also be set through configuration
or THNDRS_ environment variables.
- OpenCode Zen models use the
opencode/<model-id>form, such asopencode/big-pickle. - OpenCode Go models use the documented
opencode-go/<model-id>form, for exampleopencode-go/kimi-k2.7-code. - ACP agents use
acp:<name>, where<name>is a configured[acp_agents.<name>]entry. For example,thndrs --model acp:codexlaunches the configured stdio ACP agent instead of a built-in provider.
Big Pickle is listed by OpenCode as free for a limited time. During that free period, OpenCode documents that collected data may be used to improve the model; do not use it for confidential material unless that is acceptable.
Use --model <id>, THNDRS_MODEL, or model = "<id>" in TOML config to
override the setup selection.
See ACP for ACP configuration, permission prompts, diagnostics, and supported capabilities.
