I'm not exactly sure what the point of this is. Deepseek already has instructions to use its API with many CLI's including Claude Code directly: https://api-docs.deepseek.com/quick_start/agent_integrations...

I thought the tool format wasnt exactly the same ? So plugging any IA into claude code requires a conversion of format

Earlier quoted context omitted.

A lot of people are having good experiences doing things like using opus for designing and using locally hosted qwen3.6 for implementation. I could see a serious cost reduction story by using opus for design and deepseek for implementation. Personally I would avoid anthropic entirely. But I get why people don't.

Like me: that’s what I do. Either Opus 4.7 or GLM 5.1 for planning, write it out to a markdown file, then farm it out to Qwen 3.6 27B on my DGX Spark-alike using Pi. Works amusingly well all things considered.

What hardware are you using to power this?

anthropic messed up big time harness works with any muh commodity LLM, meanwhile VCs were duped on the myth of FOOM AGI, probably not a cooincidence Anthropic is enmeshed with the scifi fan fic forum known as lesswrong. The world wants useful tools. The bay area bubble in contrast thrives on Mythos.

Many of them expose “anthropic-compatible” APIs for this very purpose.

Why wouldn't you use something open source like OpenCode, which already support DSv4 and has more features than CC?

As someone who does use other models with CC, I am curious about opencode, what extra features does it have that you find essential?

obviously vibe coded ( co authored ) + the prices dont even match

It's going to be real hard to find headlines that weren't vibe coded from here on out unfortunately.

Unless I actually know the author I assume everything here is vibeslop and full of mistakes.

Maybe I need to switch to some news publication that actually does real research and writing still. Because public forums like this have been completely destroyed by LLMs.

If you're looking for Claude Code alternatives, I would first suggest looking into pi.dev or opencode for your harness. And then for models, you can choose from OpenCode Go (IMO most cost effect at this moment), OpenRouter, or direct from DeepSeek. Better if you go the Kimi route IMO and just buy a subscription from kimi.com
