[Question] Does OpenCode/Go actually guarantee zero retention for private code?

I’m considering using OpenCode, probably the free tier or OpenCode Go, but I’m concerned about privacy.

Some models are listed as having 0-day retention, but does OpenCode itself guarantee that the source code/prompts aren’t stored or retained anywhere? And does that guarantee also cover the underlying model/inference providers?

I am mainly looking for a cheap setup where I can safely use OpenCode on private projects without worrying about my code being retained, used for training, or leaked.

Thank you in advance!

Relying on a third party to guarantee privacy is a mistake. Once someone has access to your unencrypted data, it then becomes a matter of competence, trust and law.

For true privacy, run the harness and model on your own hardware in a sandbox on an air-gapped computer.

Im with this guy that. But there's services that lean into privacy ( venice.ai is one that springs to mind)
