Claude Code sends 33k tokens before reading the prompt; OpenCode sends 7k

Claude Code transmits significantly more tokens than OpenCode before processing user prompts. Specifically, Claude Code sends 33,000 tokens, while OpenCode sends 7,000 tokens. This indicates Claude Code sends 4.7 times more tokens than OpenCode prior to engaging with the user's input. This difference in token overhead could impact the efficiency and cost for developers utilizing these models.

Developers using Claude Code may incur higher token costs due to the model sending significantly more tokens before processing prompts.
