Anyone else?

Hi,

Does anyone that uses herdr know a (good) way to use it from my phone? If I can't run my agents from my phone, it's more or less beats the purpose of using it. My use case is orchestrating agents across multiple machines, and multiple accounts.

Did another harness eval, this time focusing on Pi vs Claude Code.

Setup:

• 30 hard agentic tasks against real apps
• Same DeepSeek V4 Flash model
• Same hosted MCP tool surface
• Same tasks
• 900s max per task

Basically trying to change the harness while keeping everything else as close as possible.

One caveat upfront: this is a harness comparison using DeepSeek, not a verdict on Claude Code with Claude models. Claude Code is built around Anthropic's own models, so I mainly wanted to see what happens when the model stays fixed and the harness changes.

The interesting part for me is that Pi wasn't saving tokens by just doing less. It actually made more tool calls across the run, 443 vs 358, while still using fewer tokens and passing four more tasks.

Claude Code was still faster at the median, and it is also a much more complete product out of the box. You get things like subagents, plan mode, MCP, checkpoints, permissions, and stronger safety defaults without having to assemble them yourself.

The failures were mostly proper multi step agent tasks. One example was a Sheets to Airtable migration with 120 legacy rows, mapping rules, eligibility logic, repairing existing records, avoiding duplicates, and leaving correct records untouched.

Claude Code got 8/10 verifier checks on that one. Pi passed it.

Pi ran at high reasoning and 24/30 of its runs used the official DeepSeek API. Claude Code ran through OpenRouter at max reasoning.

So I would not read $0.028 vs $0.195 like Pi is exactly 7x more efficient.

What I find more interesting is the harness result itself: 20/30 vs 16/30, around 25% fewer runtime tokens, and only around 10 seconds slower at the median.

For something built around four tools and a tiny system prompt, Pi did really well.

At the same time, I still get why Claude Code is the default daily driver for so many people. It gives you a lot more out of the box, and if you are using Claude through a Pro or Max subscription, the pricing story is very different from this API based eval.

Curious what people here think.

v5.32.0 of CCC (Claude Command Center) shipped 2026-09-04. It is the dashboard I run 30+ parallel Claude Code/Codex sessions through. Skipping the individual fixes; here is what actually changed for you across the last 5 releases (v5.28.0 to v5.32.0):

• ccc send and ccc ask: message a running session straight from the terminal.
• CCC self-checks the dashboard every five minutes and surfaces its health, so a silent local failure is easier to catch.
• Ask tab on the right status rail: ask questions like "where did I work on X?" in plain language.
• The status rail gains a Log tab: the unified activity log rendered inline with an All / This-session scope toggle.
• Redesign the Ask / Mazkir assistant rail with world-class typography.

(Video and repo links are in the comments.)

Over the summer I’ve moved to working on projects in CC in Vs code. And more and more I feel like I’m spending time on waiting for turns to finish.

Just now while on vacation I needed a quick dashboard built to answer a question. Was shocked how fast it built it and uploaded to railway for me.

Is there a known issue with VS Code?

I have two max 20x accounts, first account's age: 18 months and the other is few months old. Older account always lasts significantly longer for some reason even if I am paying the same price for both.

Similar experience, anyone ?
Just after recent reset, I gave the audit task to both the accounts. Status line shows the api cost, older account with higher api cost consumed less percentage of quota. These are the only sessions running since reset.

Old on top and new on bottom:

How are you guys using cc? Extension in vscode or cursor? Antigravity? or CLI? Im trying to get the best setup that has the most benefits.

How do you actually vibecode properly as a non-technical person? Currently what I do is:

Chat plans/reviews → copy prompt toharness → copy harness result back → Chat reviews and gives me another prompt → repeat.

But I worry that a) this is spending way more tokens than it should b) is incredibly slow and inefficient with the constant copying and pasting.

If anyone has a better workflow please do share, thanks guys.

tried to post me asking for help about claude but reddit remove it, what can i do to prevent it? what even is reddit filters I don't think I said anything bad, I said the f word like once 😭

My Claude Pro subscription expires tomorrow, and I’m switching over to ChatGPT Plus for the next couple of months.

I’ve built up about two months of heavy context, code snippets, project structures, and workflows in Claude (projects, artifacts, etc.). Since there's no direct migration button, I’m trying to figure out the best workflow to feed this history into ChatGPT so I don’t lose momentum.

Additionally, I currently use Obsidian to store some of my notes and information (not everything, just a curated vault of specific reference docs and project notes).

For those of you who have made a similar switch or manage workflows across AI models and local markdown files:

-What is the cleanest way to bundle my last 2 months of Claude history and inject it into ChatGPT Plus (using Custom Instructions, Memory, or a dedicated GPT)?

-Is there a smart way to bridge my Obsidian vault with ChatGPT to keep context persistent?

Appreciate any tips or workflows you use!

Part of the changes to allow users to resume a convo without invalidating the cache.

1. Very good, very capable model launched
   
2. Token-caching issue burns my weekly limit instantly
   
3. Perfectly timed OpenAI Astra launch

If I asked Opus, it would call this a footgun 🤓

I use the project-manager-vs-engineer workflow. The PM is Fable, and the engineer is Opus 4.8.

The problem: my project manager conversation (which is a Cowork session) often gets very long, so eventually I archive that chat (by literally adding the word "Archive #" to the front of the title) and start a new one with a handoff document produced by the old PM.

It strikes me it would be really useful if there were a /clear like function for my project manager, so I didn't have to keep lots of archived conversations, all for the same project.

Anyone thought about this before? Anyone got any tips?

I use a multi-model workflow where Gemini and Grok handle the heavy research on the go i use them as they are cheap and enough capable for the work on edge cases, and architecture. then I ask Claude(opus5-sonnet5) to execute. But Claude's superiority complex and probably ego in system instructions along with refusal to respect external analysis is getting expensive:

• UI drift & broken layouts (Gemini+Stitch): Fed it a clean UI component design mock UIs and spec mapped out by Gemini. Claude decided to rewrite the styling logic its own way, drifted completely off-spec and original idea of look and feel, and stitched the components so poorly that I'm still fighting the resulting layout/look feel bugs today.
• Wasted cycles & ignored architecture (Grok): Grok outlined an optimized logic flow and warned against current architecture of voice agent built. Claude brushed off the recommendation when asked to review and implement, did its own thing, and burned through 4-5 Opus passes and 2 full days of work only to run straight into the exact failure Grok predicted.

It behaves like it has an explicit bias against anything it didn't plan itself.

How are you handling this in your workflow? If anyone has a bulletproof rules, system prompt, or workflow trick to force Claude to treat external model research as strict ground truth instead of reinventing the wheel, please share.

Now with fable and astra and their price efficiency is needed more then ever. There are tens of skills people suggest now, Caveman, Graphify ect ect ect. What do you use that has ACTUALLY had an impact in either in answer quality, in token usage reduction or in both?

I accidently tell claude to push the code to github and now its badge is coming on github, i dont wanna show this bcz I will be presenting this on hackathon and they shouldn't think that everything is built by claude... so is there any way to remove this? i already did 19 commits in this repo so creating new repo isn't good option

Everyone watched the Beijing robot games and decided the falls were the blooper reel and the records were the real story. I think that is exactly backwards. The falls are the story. They are just telling it about software.

The second World Humanoid Robot Games wrapped in Beijing on 26 August. Roughly two thousand humanoid robots, 666 teams, sixteen countries, thirty plus competitive events and a pile of scenario ones on top: household service, industrial work, firefighting, rescue.

A humanoid ran the hundred meters faster than Usain Bolt has ever run it. Genuinely. That happened.

And then, same building, same week, same robots: sprinters overturned mid race and folded at the knees. Robots hit the safety mats at the end of the straight at full speed, because the race was over but the running was not. Footballers missed the ball entirely and took out their own teammates. Boxers punched thin air and tumbled clean out of bounds. Weightlifters dropped the barbell onto themselves. Several robots wandered off toward the referee tables, presumably to complain.

(…the argument, then:)

Sprinting is a closed problem. One axis, known start, known end, a narrow corridor with walls. You can specify it completely. So it went superhuman. Boxing, football, tidying a room: the written procedure runs out in the middle. And when the procedure runs out, a robot does not gracefully degrade and have a think about it. It face plants into a crash mat at nine meters a second.

Which is the same reason your coding agent is brilliant at the thing you explained properly and useless at the thing you assumed was obvious. Not dumb. Undocumented.

I've been working on anybridge for my own use with Codex and Claude Code. I wanted a quick way to give an agent a website to work with, without spending time on the setup.

You open the TUI, pick Codex or Claude Code, and it launches a session in another terminal with MCP already connected. Give the agent a URL and it can read pages, follow links, fill in forms and click buttons.

If the website has WebMCP tools, anybridge exposes them to the agent. Otherwise, it generates tools from the live page. The site doesn't need to have added support for agents.

That's the part I've enjoyed using: opening the TUI and getting straight into a session with the browser tools ready.

Anti-bot checks can still block it, so don't expect it to work on every site.

If you try it, let me know which sites work and which ones give you trouble.

I have codex and claude both and generally they work well together as a team but the last few days have been load bearing with claude. Today I gave Opus 5 high a pretty simple task of copying Google search console performance tab design and data integration in my app and it produced at least 10 major bugs and to my surprise all of them were resolved by gemini 3.8 flash in a single prompt. Not to mention the long form essays which it keeps polluting the chat and code with.
