OpenCode evals require exact version 1.18.29; received ${ver

Error message

OpenCode evals require exact version 1.18.29; received ${version}

What it means

OpenCode eval sessions pin the provider binary to exactly version 1.18.29 so eval results are reproducible; evalSessionProviderVersion throws for any other requested version and defaults to the pinned one when none is supplied.

Solutions

1. Set request.opencodeVersion to '1.18.29' (or omit it to use the default)
2. Install/pin the OpenCode binary at exactly 1.18.29 in the environment
3. Update the pinned version constant in eval-session.ts if the eval matrix legitimately moves

Example fix

// before
runEval({ provider: 'opencode', opencodeVersion: '1.19.0' });
// after
runEval({ provider: 'opencode', opencodeVersion: '1.18.29' });

if ((request.provider === 'opencode') && request.opencodeVersion !== undefined && request.opencodeVersion !== '1.18.29') throw new Error('opencode evals pinned to 1.18.29');

function isPinnedOpenCodeVersion(v: string | undefined): boolean { return (v ?? '1.18.29') === '1.18.29'; }

try { runEvalSession(request); }
catch (e) { if (String(e.message).startsWith('OpenCode evals require exact version')) { console.error('Pin opencodeVersion to 1.18.29'); process.exitCode = 2; } else throw e; }

When it happens

Trigger: Requesting an eval session with provider 'opencode' and opencodeVersion set to anything other than '1.18.29' (e.g. '1.18.30', 'latest', '1.19.0').

Common situations: CI installing the newest OpenCode release; a developer bumping the local CLI and re-running evals; a config template interpolating a version variable.
