   Thanks for the feedback! Most techniques actually work across all coding tools, though you're right I use Claude Code in examples since I'm using it mostly in real life. Which tool do you use? Happy to add more diverse examples.

   I pulled ideas from posts by Simon Willison, Orta Therox, the Anthropic team, Indragie Karunaratne, Chris Dzombak, and others, then tried them on real projects with Claude Code and Codex CLI. This page keeps only what proved useful, organiz

   Creator of the website here. It’s a practical snapshot of what seemed to work with Claude Code this summer, arranged by stage and linked back to the originals. Most of it should translate across agentic tools; a handful is Claude Code–speci

   My datapoint (Claude Code): on the paid Pro tier I’d hit the cap after ~1–2 hours of real coding. I upgraded to Max and haven’t hit limits since, even with multiple terminals in parallel (lots of refactoring/tests)

   Community-maintained comparison of AI coding tools with actual free access to frontier models (GPT-5, Claude Sonnet 4, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Qwen3-Coder-480B). Only includes models scoring >60% on SWE-bench Verified. Turns out Qwen Code gives

    Nice write-up, especially the point about mixing different models for different stages of coding. I’ve been tracking which IDE/CLI tools give free or semi-free access to pro-grade LLMs (e.g., GPT-5, Claude code, Gemini 2.5 Pro) and how

    So far I have seen GPT-5 models only in Cursor (free for paying users). Any others?

    Could you share the hardware specs you use to run Devstral?

    Gemini CLI (free tier) [a] - less than 1 h/day Claude Code (pro) [a] - 2 h/day Cursor (pro) [b] - 2 weeks/month

    Trying to track which agentic tools (both IDEs and CLIs) give free access to pro-grade LLMs (Claude Sonnet/Opus 4, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Grok 4, OpenAI o3, etc). May be gaps or mistakes - feedback welcome.

    I haven’t personally run into the fallback to Flash (probably because I mostly use Claude Code now). Curious if others using Gemini CLI are seeing the same: does the switch to Flash happen after less than an hour of coding with Gemini 2.5 P

    Thanks, added Warp to the list with the following data: Up to 150 AI requests/month → about 15 coding hours/month (assuming 10 req/hour) with frontier models. The Free plan explicitly supports frontier models like Claude Sonn
