I'm not sure why anyone would fund "creating an agent". OpenCode is competing with Codex and Claude already.
"The bullets" are not any different than other new agent projects. New agent projects pop up and die constantly and it's not from a lack of funding.
I think that if there are many players in the space, it's a problem worth working on! Like I said in the post, our main problem is speed and that's what we're trying to fix. It's been a problem, and it still is a problem. We have tried tools like OpenCode, Pi, etc. but for our speed issue, it did not fix it. If we go down dying on this boat, so be it, at least we went down dying on a problem we care about!
