I don't really mind hopping between claude/codex/glm/kimi except I don't know a good way to resume as session across agent harnesses. Normally I'd just have it write out what it's doing to a file, if I need to transfer context, but if it goes down mid-session that's a no-go. I think people have built tools for this, and of course you could reasonably vibe one yourself, but I don't really trust something like that to…

kilocode allows you to switch between models mid session!

Yeah - it's switching agents (harnesses) that's the hard part!

This is a tough moment. Claude is simultaneously becoming substantially more expensive, substantially less reliable (single 9 of reliability), and substantially less performant. It's really hard to justify the cost of a subscription over there right now.

YMMV. I would still be very happy with Claude if it hard failed on 20% of tasks. You can always come back to it. I say this as someone working for a tech company who does not have to foot the bill (in the >$1k per month bracket) I also experienced and accept the 1990s levels of unreliability, which is my “internet generation”. My first access was lifting a handset and placing on a speaker/mic cradle. Programmers thes…

I've been on the $200 plan for 3 months, but this will be my last month. I got great use out of 4.5 for a while, but 4.6 felt like a half step back (conflated with all the random hidden config changes during it), and 4.7 is genuinely terrible. It's impossible to tell these days whether 4.7 is stuck because it's thinking and Anthropic suppressed all output (seriously, 4.7 will just start making changes without explain…

4.6 has been excellent when used through the API. But I am right with you on 4.7, so I have been sticking to 4.6.

So happy to have diversified my model providers this past couple of weeks. GPT-5.5 has had no trouble slotting into Opus workloads. Will be fun to try out more of the models as time goes on to build some resiliency into my engineering workflows :).

I found GPT 5.4 terrible. I just tested 5.5 and compared with opus its still not great.

In what harness?

Single nine has good vibes bro. It means when the service is up the results are better. I read about it in a blog. The model hallucinates way less. Even less than grok

I'm either extremely lucky or Dario ran the direct fiber to my house because I have never had it go down in any meaningful way.. Is this just the API and I'm too much of luddite to actually use the API?

Dude dario definitely ran the fiber straight to your place personally. Everything is fine and this is such a good thing.
