What coding agents do you use?

by

There are tons of great coding agent CLIs and IDEs out there. Which do you use on a regular basis? What stands out as being the killer feature?

Best

Mostly Claude Code and Opencode but I will be building my own.

With laser focus on my needs and requirements.

Claude code gets 55% to 60% there with major homebrew and lots of tweaking and certain concessions.

Gemini CLI leaves a lot to be desired.

 How do you decide which one to use between CC and OpenCode? Is it per repo or depending on what you're trying to do?

 

If it's a small thing or I'm experimenting, OpenCode

When I want to have my files butchered, Gemini 2.5 flash in gemini CLI.

If it's a major feature Claude Code

but. The more I use these tools the more I run into the limitations of LLMs and the varying quality of the service.

Sometimes API performance dips.

Tried most of these, but after Antigravity launched I’ve been using it daily — the workflow feels lighter and more “agent-native” than IDE-bolted AI. Curious how others feel after longer use.

Interesting but not too surprising to see and in the lead. For users of either: why one and not the other? Is it CLI vs IDE, or some other factor?
