It's pretty funny, i'm a $200/m Claude subscriber and i've had little need to use anything else. However the more Claude has been restricting my workflow (notably around the recent IDE/-p usage change) the more i've been wanting to go elsehwere. I'm concerned since i really want SOTA reasoning, but DeepSeek still has me interested.

I think you should give other models a try and see how much they differ from SOTA models. I did this and realized, even Qwen-2.5-Max was enough. I am sure even Claude Sonnet 3.5 is enough for things I play around with. I am not really striving for fields medal in Mathematics.

I’m feeling more a novice every day, but how isn’t this just handing over your code to team deepseek for whatever they might want

Not everyone is working with state secrets or user personal data (or even more closely guarded, company secrets) on a daily basis, most of what I hack on is either FOSS already, or will be, not much to keep secret here. Obviously, if you do deal with any sort of secrets, then using local LLMs over OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek or whoever is obviously preferred, and in the case of personal data of users, probably a requ…

either this or you work on software that even if copied won't get you far since the business relies on network effects or pure networking.

Getting the source code of facebook or instagram doesn't mean you could compete with them.

I work for a company that has built relationship with event organizers over the past 10 years. The code I maintain could be written from scratch in maybe 2-3 months even though it was built over the past 10 years but besides that you have frontend / DB / hardware / logistics etc

I'm not sure you need a "DeepSeek native coding agent" to take advantage of DeepSeeks cache, yesterday as the Codex quota usage issue still wasn't solved for me, I wrote a tiny little bridge so I could use DeepSeek V4 Pro via Codex, and seems most of everything I did was basically cached as far as I can tell: https://i.imgur.com/7eKn6wN.png (2026-05-23 Input (Cache hit): 39,123,200 tokens, Input (Cache miss) 1,692,28…

> I wrote a tiny little bridge so I could use DeepSeek V4 Pro via Codex Can you share the bridge. DeepSeek v4 is awesome paired with claude-code or opencode. I found that claude code costs me less than opencode and I am presuming this is due to a better engineered harness.

LiteLLM can serve OpenAI API endpoint IIRC and proxy that to other providers like DeepSeek, should work with Codex

You should definitely stick to the $200 plan, and not try the $10 coding plans with open weight models and higher limits. Anthropic needs your money to stay solvent, and you'll sleep better knowing you're using SOTA.
