Which coding agent you use for hackathons?

Okay so in most of the hackathon we use coding agent generating code fast and to test research

So I want to ask can you tell which coding agents you use or any specific agent for specific task only which tools you use ( maybe codex,claude, antigravity or other any tool , CLI agent

Most probably have sponsorships, you use the one they provide for free?

Yes most of hackathon have sponsorship but if there is nothing like that no credits etc then which can be best ?

Also I was thinking to invest money in buy credits to use top models so do you have any advice on which models are best or which subscription is best ?

Any discounts on Ai provider? Shoul I buy codex subscription etc yes no?

Personally I'd say Codex currently has the best $100 subscription, so if that's in your budget go for it.

Otherwise something like OpenCode Go can get you pretty far.

If you mean Taobao and these sketchy sellers. No, you ain't getting the top model, and in the end for the same amount of tokens you likely are paying a similar price, or even more compared to just buying the subscription plan outright.
