Use OpenCode Go (curated open-source coding models via the headless `opencode run` CLI) as a cheap executor inside Claude Code. Claude is the conductor — requirements, architecture, the hard 20%, verification, review — and routes deterministic, high-volume work (scaffolding, well-specified implementation, test generation, migrations, first-pass review) to OpenCode Go models. Use when the user wants to "use opencode / OpenCode Go", "delegate to opencode", "implement with opencode", "scaffold / generate tests / migrate cheaply", "first-pass review on a cheap model", or "save Claude tokens on a big job". Claude always verifies OpenCode's output.
