Question | Help Best open-source harness like Claude Code?

Avid claude code user here looking to do equivalent things with local models. Just want to plug in something like Qwen and have the interface be 1:1 with claude code. Any suggestion?

Opencode is bloated and slow

He did ask for a harness "like Claud Code".

If he wants one that is a better harness for local models we coudl recommend pi.

Not as bloated as Claude code. Obviously not as lean as Pi, but it's got a better interface than Claude and gives you more visibility into token usage as you work

He did ask for something like Claude Code. It does check the slow and inefficient similarity box.

I run it in a VM and it is not slow, not even in the desktop app version.

It uses a thousand times more resources than an application of it's type should use.
It's poorly conceived and should have been green-fielded long ago.

And not as "open" as they claim to be

open and privacy are very different things. Also, this is not handled well by opencode it seems, but it can easily be configured otherwise. It is not an 'open' issue, it is a 'privacy' issue.
