[FEATURE]: Verify subscription/model is usable when /connecting it #7491
Description
Feature hasn't been suggested before.
- I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
Describe the enhancement you want to request
- Create an OpenAI key
- Use
/connectand select OpenAI - Put in the OpenAI key
- Select GPT-5.2 Pro
Everything looks swell at this stage, but my account was actually on Free and I didn't realize it. Only in the next /new and sending in a message I get an API error trying to use the model.
IMO OpenCode should try to use the model when I select it (including using /models) to verify the setup works so I can fix it then and there instead of finding out later.
