Worth mentioning this post: https://x.com/opencode/status/2009805930377167233

In which OpenCode "collaborates" with OpenAI to support login with ChatGPT Pro/Plus (through this exact method!)

Not exactly proof that this method is "OpenAI allowed" but it's a good sign at least.

This occurred in response to Anthropic cracking down on a similar loophole, which tbh made me take it as more of an opportunistic marketing opportunity rather than a generalizable position.

Not disagreeing with you (and based on your other comments you're probably aware of this info) - just adding context on why this is a pretty interesting gray area and I'm similarly curious whether OpenAI will explicitly allow, disallow, or maintain ambiguity towards it.
