For those of you that use deepseek v4 occasionally, what harness do you use it with? I’m only familiar with claude code and codex.

Any comments on what you can or cannot rely on it for relative to cc and codex would be appreciated too!

Maybe check out Goose. It is the standard agent harness being developed by The Linux Foundation under the AAIF. Under active development and the implementation seems to have a good leg up on the other popular agents.

I see their name mentiod everywere along with Aider, presumably for being among the first agents, but I've never met anyone that actually uses them.

Check out pi.dev. OpenCode is a nice batteries-included Claude Code replacement, but I’m in love with the extensibility of Pi.

Any Pi extensions you'd specifically recommend? I'm just starting out with Pi, but I've had mixed results with extensions. I'm using Pi with gemma4 26b locally, so anything that's friendly to small local models would be appreciated. I think the only extension I'm using right now is pi-total-recall.

I think pi wants you to write your own extensions, adapted to your meeds.

I haven't had a need for any extensions though. Maybe subagents, but I solved that with tmux. For all the rest, I just use "skills".
