Re: Cerebras Code
#33I'm so excited to see a real competitor to Claude Code! Gemini CLI, while decent, does not have a $200/month pricing model and they charge per API access - Codex is the same. I'm trying to get into the https://cloud.cerebras.ai/ to try the $50/month plan but I can't even get in.
Unless I'm misunderstanding something. Cerebras Code is not equivalent to Claude Code or Gemini CLI. It's a strange name for a subscription to access an API endpoint. You take your Cerebras Code endpoint and configure XYZ CLI tool or IDE plugin to point at it.

#34> running at speeds of up to 2,000 tokens per second, with a 131k-token context window, no proprietary IDE lock-in, and no weekly limits! I was excited, then I read this: > Send up to 1,000 messages per day—enough for 3–4 hours of uninterrupted vibe coding. I don't mind paying for services I use. But it's hard to take this seriously when the first paragraph claim is contradicting the fine prints.
1,000 messages per day should be plenty as a daily development driver. I use claude code sonnet 4 exclusively and I do not send more than 1,000 messages per day. However, that is my current understanding. I am certainly not pressing enter 1,000 times! Maybe there are more messages being sent under the hood that I do not realize?

#35This has to be a monstrous money loser. If they can maintain this pricing level, and if Qwen3‑Coder is as good as people say then they will have an enormous hit on their hands. A massive money losing hit, but a hit. Very interesting! PS: Did they reduce the context window, it looks like it.
They are a hardware company. They have a custom chip they are running it on. The $200/month is their "poor person" product for people who can't shell out $500k on one of their rigs. https://www.cerebras.ai/system
But this will certainly be a money loser. They have likely been waiting for an open source model that somewhat conforms to their hardware's limitations and which gives acceptable recommendations.
It looks like they have found it with QWEN. We'll see!

#37My understanding is that the coding agents people use can be modified to plug into any LLM provider's API? The difference here seems to be that Cerebras does not appear to have Qwen3-Coder through their API! So now there is a crazy fast (and apparently good too?) model that they only provide if you pay the crazy monthly sub?
define 'crazy'. it's two kilotokens per second. that's fast .
In other words, it's needlessly fast.

Oh so this is not an integrated command line tool like Claude code? I assumed it was something where Cerebras released a decent prompt and command line agent setup. A lot of the value of Claude Code is how polished it is and how much work went into the prompt design.

The issue is not about whether the limit is too high or too low. What turned me back was that they claimed "no weekly limits" as a selling feature, without mentioning that they change it to a "daily limits". I understand it's a sale tactics. But it seems not forthcoming, and it's hard for me to trust the rest of the claims.
I don't see what's hard to understand about this.. other providers have weekly limits and daily limits. If you max out your daily every day you might still hit your weekly after 3-4 days of usage, meaning you cannot send more for the rest of the week. This is saying that no such weekly limit exists on top of the daily. E.g. see https://techcrunch.com/2025/07/28/anthropic-unveils-new-rate...
Also the weekly limit selling point is silly - it almost certainly only impacts those who are abusing, ie. running 24/7.
