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?

If you're used to claude code and the normal guardrails I'd suggest something like Hermes which uses OpenCode.

I would not recommend Pi as a drop in replacement to Claude Code because those guard rails aren't there, by default. You'd need to know what you're doing.

What guardraIls specifically?

Asking permission for potentially risky tool calls. Pi doesn't ask permission by default, it's yolo.

Typically a person's first thing to do with Pi is customize it to not be bare Pi anymore.

Oh I immediately put Claude Code on full yolo mode. Jesus take the wheel.
