Assuming you have ollama installed and a local model already downloaded, install opencode following steps here.

Create an opencode.json with config pointing to your downloaded model:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "provider": {
    "ollama": {
      "npm": "@ai-sdk/openai-compatible",
      "name": "Ollama",
      "options": {
        "baseURL": "http://localhost:11434/v1"
      },
      "models": {
        "gemma4": {
          "name": "gemma4:e4b"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Start opencode from ollama with:
