Use pi. Can't trust OAI or Anthropic to make good tools.

  Claude Code is much nicer than Pi, especially for long running autonomous work. Pi might be OSS but it's just not nearly as featureful or agentic as Claude Code.

    Pi can do all the same that CC can. OSS is nice but the reason to use it is to control what is happening between me and the LLM. See: OP and many others for many reasons, bloated system prompts, the harness changing day to day, Anthropic shipping terrible and untested [features](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48947776 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48947776) that don't appear in the changelog, Codex ultra subagents nuking usage, etc. You can tell which harnesses are vibe coded.

    I agree, but when it comes to the Pi defaults. I’ve spent a good deal of time (admittedly via vibe coding) writing extensions that completely alter the look/feel as well as functionality of Pi. I view Pi as similar to NeoVim, both programs have kinda crappy defaults that nobody should really use but are incredibly extensible and customizable for power users willing to invest their time into them.

      Interesting comparision with NeoVim, given that it was basically created to provide a better default (config) experience than classic vim. We might be close to PostNeoVim (or is helix [0] already that?). [0]: helix: A post-modern text editor. https://helix-editor.com/ https://helix-editor.com/
