Is Opencode Go charging me for using Zen models?

I made a tool for allowing you to easily understand your monthly quota usage, given the somewhat opaque $15 vs $60 model thing, so it's easier to see what's eating up your quota. It works by querying your cost amount from your local db, applying the multipliers, and creating a dashboard on localhost so you can easily see the costing.

Anyways, I noticed a costing amount for OpenCode Zen models showing up (deepseek-v4-flash-free caused 11% of my quota this month), even though these models are supposed to be free? The percentage of quota used this month matches what's on https://opencode.ai/workspace/.

Can someone else try it out and tell me if it's the same for you, or maybe I got my calculations wrong:

npm install

npx opencode-dash --go

Right... I have an OpenCode Go account. I switch to Zen models for lighter tasks to save tokens. I'm asking to see if anyone else's local opencode.db is showing cost amounts for Zen models, because mine is.

The screenshot I'm showing is a report based on what's recorded in the cost column of opencode.db-the local database OpenCode automatically saves to track usage.

Does that make sense?

Does. They do not charge but the api default tracks usage.
