Was it opencode who bragged about their vibecoding tokenmaxxing attitude or I'm mixing them with someone else?

Honestly, who isn't bragging about their vibecoding tokenmaxxing attitude nowadays?

They have shown so so so many times that their culture is not aligned with trustworthy software. Yet people keep using it.

It's not like there wouldn't be any other harnesses either. Just switch to literally anything else please.

Awaiting for detailed breakdown of the incident. I am more interested in knowing , how can a distillation attack leak / expose credentials.

It’s fascinating that tokens are so valuable that people are spending so much time and effort hacking to obtain API keys.

Similar to other stolen goods, it's not hard to resell tokens on the black market: https://vectoral.com/blog/token-relay-market

They might have spent next to 0 time actually 'hacking' - they may have just told Opencode to hack Opencode website and let it run for hours or days till it succeeded.

API keys have been routinely stolen in mass automated attacks for malicious usage long before LLMs even existed

The tokens of frontier are valuable...

> security breach

> related to a large scale distillation attack

I'm not sure how this adds up. I could understand if this impacted their uptime, but not security.

Are they actually saying a bunch of credentials were stolen and are being used for distillation?

the ux is kind of crazy.

you login to their website, and you are presented with a list of providers where you can click and add your provider api key.

how the key is stored on the backend isn't clear, but it is akin to handing your password or if you know crypto, your private key, to someone and letting them store it for you.

from what i can tell, there are no links within the console to a ToS, Privacy policy or anything else. there are no warnings or documentation about how they store your keys.

someone else in this thread linked to this issue, but this comment is especially insane given that i can't find any privacy policy or tos for the console.

FWIW, OpenRouter has the exact same feature.

and their TOS/Privacy policies are equally light on details.

But isn’t OpenCode open source why does it need credentials.

For the inference APIs, which need to bill users. It's unclear why OpenCode's servers (presumably) had access to the API credentials.

They function similar to openrouter BYOK.
