Mystery Model SpaceBunny Tops OpenRouter Daily Charts; Hands-On Coding Tests Impress

量子位 · wechat · 2026-09-27

An anonymous model called SpaceBunny rocketed to #1 on both OpenRouter and OpenCode daily usage charts within days. QbitAI tested it in DeepSeek Harness across a dozen coding tasks: a Three.js interactive Temple of Heaven with unprompted day/night cycles and weather toggles in under two hours, a working macOS alarm app in 23 minutes, and a thought-subtitle app fixed within 15 minutes. Verdict: fast, cheap-feeling, occasionally overthinks, minor bugs fixed in one round, but less jaw-dropping than Astra. Community guesses point to OpenAI, xAI, Kimi, GLM or MiniMax—no vendor has claimed it. Its rise likely reflects the economics of high-speed Flash-tier models.
