How I use Claude code for free (required nothing)
whatsapp channel ~ https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbCg...
Let me show you the EASIEST way to use AI coding agents for
ABSOLUTELY FREE. No subscription. No API key setup. No
complicated configuration. Just install one extension and
you're done.
This video is for everyone who's been wanting to learn AI
coding but can't afford Claude Code's subscription pricing.
I'll show you a free alternative that's beginner-friendly
and actually works for building real projects, including
AI trading bots.
🎯 The Problem:
Claude Code is the best AI coding agent. I use it daily.
But it's expensive. Many viewers have been asking — "How
do I learn AI coding without paying for Claude?"
Most solutions online are complicated:
❌ OpenCode setup with custom API routing
❌ Ollama with local model deployment
❌ Multiple API key configurations
For beginners, all of these are TOO complex.
🚀 The Solution:
Use Blackbox AI — a free AI coding agent that already has
API keys built in. No setup. No configuration. Just install
the VS Code extension and start coding.
🛠️ Step-by-Step Setup (Under 2 Minutes):
1. Open VS Code
2. Go to Extensions
3. Search "Blackbox AI"
4. Click Install
5. Click "Continue for Free" (do NOT upgrade to Pro)
6. Select AI model from the bottom panel
7. Choose a FREE model (recommended: KI K2.6 or Minimax M2.7)
8. Done — start prompting
🔥 Live Demo in This Video:
✅ Created a Python "Hello World" file with one prompt
✅ Built a full 3D Landing Page (HTML + CSS + JS) in 60 seconds
✅ All for ₹0 — zero subscription cost
💡 Recommended FREE Models:
✅ KI K2.6 — Best overall (what I use)
✅ Minimax M2.7 — Solid alternative
✅ Other free options also available in the model selector
⚠️ Honest Limitations:
This is FREE — so there are tradeoffs:
✅ Rate limits exist (you'll hit them eventually if you spam)
✅ Not as powerful as Claude Code for complex projects
✅ Slightly slower than paid Claude API
But for:
✅ Learning AI coding
✅ Building basic projects
✅ Testing prompts and ideas
✅ Beginner practice
This is MORE than enough. Once you outgrow it, you can move
to Claude Code or Cursor Pro.
🎓 Why This Matters for the Algo Trading Series:
I'm currently running a ₹1 Lakh Options Trading Challenge
where I build algorithms live using AI. Many of you commented
saying you can't follow along because Claude Code is paid.
With Blackbox AI, you can now:
✅ Follow every video in the algo trading series
✅ Build the same trading bots I'm building
✅ Edit code files I share on the WhatsApp channel
✅ Learn AI-driven coding without paying ₹1
🚫 Why I Don't Recommend Other "Free" Solutions:
❌ OpenCode: Requires custom API routing — too complex
❌ Ollama: Requires local model install
