If you are paying API rates (not using Max subscriptions) there's no reason to use Anthropic's API directly, the same models are hosted by both AWS and Google with better uptime than Anthropic.
- JamesSwift 5mo agoHow do things like prompt caching etc play into that? Would I theoretically have a more stable harness backing my usage? Im seriously over the current claude experience. After seemingly fixing my 4.6 usage by disabling adaptive thinking and moving to max effort, it seems that the release of 4.7 has broken that workflow and Im 99% certain that disabling adaptive thinking does nothing even on 4.6 now. Just egregious errors in 2 days this week after coming back from vacation.
- thepasch 5mo ago> Would I theoretically have a more stable harness backing my usage? If you don’t mind an opinionated harness that asks for a pretty specific workflow, but one that works well, use OpenCode. If you want to spread your wings and feel the sweet kiss of freedom, use Pi.
- JamesSwift 5mo agoIm looking at moving to Pi and I like the minimal nature, but I disagree with a handful of decisions they make. So Id likely need to maintain a fork which is less than ideal.
- wyre 5mo agoWhat decisions is Mario making that you disagree with? My impression is Pi is minimal so any changes can live on top of Pi without needing to maintain a fork? I started developing my own coding agent after using Pi for a couple months, so I’m curious what you don’t like about pi.
- JamesSwift 5mo agoWhen I hear Mario talk about pi and his approach I find myself agreeing with a lot of it. But I also find myself agreeing with a lot of the points from this https://www.thevinter.com/blog/bad-vibes-from-pi https://www.thevinter.com/blog/bad-vibes-from-pi
- mattmanser 5mo agothe opinions in question are that bash should be enabled by default with no restrictions, that the agent should have access to every file on your machine from the start, and that npm is the only package manager worth supporting. Bold choices. To save others a click, though the article is worth reading. He also mentions no subagents by default in pi as well.
- canadiantim 5mo agooh-my-pi harness fixes many of these, like subagents
- JamesSwift 5mo agoIt seems to, but then also throws in the kitchen sink and a custom bath.
- carterschonwald 5mo agocheck out my pi forks.
- JamesSwift 5mo agoUmmmmmm, how?
- HDBaseT 5mo agoI searched his HackerNews username on Google. [0] - https://github.com/cartazio/oh-punkin-pi https://github.com/cartazio/oh-punkin-pi
- JamesSwift 5mo agoThat (and oh-my-pi) seem like an excessive swing in the other direction. Im all for the simplicity and minimalism of pi. There are just a few fundamental things that need updated (mainly subagent context and open-by-default security model).
- carterschonwald 5mo agoyup thats mine. :) i actually had some stuff layered into mono pi, and i frankly hit my limit in terms of architecture issues in monopi, omp aka oh my pi is frankly better architectured. if you pared back the fearure set to be minimal, you would full stop have a better designed minimal harness. i do have a proper next gen no slop harness in the work. amusingly , dog fooding existing tools with my improvements layered in, has repeatedly validated my design choices and if anything has reduced my tolerance for the errors that seem to happen in vanilla or first party harnesses
- zackify 5mo agopi for the win, i have my own ai extend it when i want more specific features. vibe coded in 20 minutes shift+tab like claude code to add permission control.
- unshavedyak 5mo agoI find it so funny that many of these harnesses sound like black magic and are completely mystical to me. I use Claude Code every day and yet i can't imagine the workflow of Pi. I also don't care to pay API rates just to experiment with them. Largely though i'm happy with Claude Code w\ IDE integration, so i don't feel the need to migrate. Nonetheless i'm curious.
- zackify 5mo agoI have enterprise so its always usage which makes it possible for me. And then the other subs I can toggle between which is awesome. I live in the terminal. Before AI I always preferred it so it suits me
- theplatman 5mo agoyou can use claude code with these other providers
- GardenLetter27 5mo agoAWS Bedrock supports prompt caching, just note that if you use the Converse API you need to set the cache points manually.
- Hamuko 5mo agoThe enterprise tier is API pricing only. https://support.claude.com/en/articles/9797531-what-is-the-enterprise-plan https://support.claude.com/en/articles/9797531-what-is-the-e...
- ranman 5mo agoThey'll cut you a private offer for bedrock tokens but bedrock has a 32k output limit
- robkop 5mo agoI use bedrock with 1M context every day. Not sure this is right
- conception 5mo ago4.7 is the first opus model that’s had the 1 M context window available on Bedrock.
- mastercheif 5mo agoNot true. Opus and Sonnet 4.6 support 1m context on Bedrock.
- squeaky-clean 5mo agoI've had Opus 4.6 1M and Sonnet 4.6 1M for months now on Bedrock.
- conception 5mo agoTheir docs may be lying but they say 200k for opus 4.6. And yes 1M was on sonnet for Claude enterprise.
- 8note 5mo agoisnt that an input limit from api gateway?
