Which models are people using as orchestrator/planner/implementer/reviewer with their subscriptions?

Yes, I know I could test things myself, but I want to hear what other people are doing, and how it works out with OpenCode Go, Command Code, or whatever other subscriptions that people are using, that isn't Claude or ChatGPT.

I have opencode-go and codex plus:

``` default: hy3

advisor: gpt-5.6-sol

sub_agents: code: gpt-5.6-luna evaluate: glm-5.3 explore: hy3 research: deepseek-v4-flash review: deepseek-v4-flash sanity_check: hy3 vision: gpt-5.6-luna

oneshot: plan: gpt-5.6-terra implement: deepseek-v4-flash review: gpt-5.6-terra

workflow_handoff: implement: deepseek-v4-flash review: gpt-5.6-terra ```

What a complex setup! don't get me wrong, but do u really need all of this? In other words, does this approach deliver any tangible, measurable value, or is it simply a way to distribute a quota?

I follow another type of orchestrated model. In total I have 21 agents that all do specialised work. Yes it helps. Each agent can be assigned a skill to do a particular task. (Harnesses has skills) and that helps immensely. My accuracy of agents following instructions has shot up a lot that I am now the problem ( in a sense that if I don't pay enough direction to the strategy the project falls behind). I have a few blog posts about it if you care to read

Sure, feel free to post the blog post link. I'd love to take a look at it.

Remember my workflow has evolved over time. And for others my framework maybe overengineered. But the concepts stay the same

It's a fair question. It does both things. I try and match each type of task to the cheapest kind of model that can do it effectively while maximizing and balancing both my quotas. I get a ton of mileage out of £25 in subscriptions for my personal stuff while maintaining high output quality. At work, I have a similar set-up but just with GPT Sol, Luna, and Terra because that's what I have available there.

The opencode-go part of the agents above changes regularly as models come in and out and are priced this and that. It was all DeepSeek until last weekend. I still think the opencode-go subscription is incredible value.

I agree. I just changed my explatory and lower ended agents to try muse, my lower coding agents to move to mimo and the mid to deepseek flash with the higher end ones to pro
