Question

Description

I am trying to configure a Custom Provider by following the instructions in the documentation:
https://opencode.ai/docs/providers/#custom-provider

However, the steps described in the guide do not work as expected. Even if I follow the instructions exactly, I cannot successfully add a Custom Provider.

It seems the documentation is either outdated or missing some necessary information. Please review the section and update it to reflect the correct procedure.

Thank you.

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

  • #5937: Custom provider docs incorrect - "Other" option not available
  • #8004: Configuring a custom provider - no "Other" option after running /connect
  • #8820: "Other" provider option not showing up - similar config issue
  • #9071: "Other" option missing for Custom Provider configuration in v1.1.25
  • #9802: Missing "Other" option in /connect menu (v1.1.28) - exact same issue
  • #9897: [DOCS] Missing documentation for modalities property in custom provider configuration

All of these reports indicate issues with the custom provider documentation and configuration process, particularly around the missing "Other" option in the /connect command.

Feel free to ignore if your specific case differs from these issues.
