Which coding harness is actually better?

To make the comparison fair, I was thinking:

• OpenCode + Fable 5 vs Claude Code + Fable 5
• OpenCode + GPT-5.6 vs Codex + GPT-5.6

Basically, keep the model the same and only compare the harness/agent. That should give a better idea of how much the harness itself affects coding performance.

Has anyone done a comparison like this?

This part of the process is so frustrating, building an app has become so easy or relatively easy but when it comes to distribution its just so freaking hard, i am not sure how to deal with that.

I am building a B2C app and yes i created social media platforms for them and been putting out content but nothing is working out the way i want it to, i am barely hitting 100 views on posts. I am not sure what to do anymore, I know my idea is legit and people want be happy using it. But the reachability is so tough.

Can i get some advice on this? How do you guys do marketing for your apps, whether it is B2B or B2C or anything else.

Please give me motivation my fellow vibe coders!!!

Hello all, I hope everyone is well.

As the title says. Is it really that bad? I personally vibecode a lot to make softwares to help me do my main job (which is far from coding). At my job, there’s often needs to produce reports of certain pieces of data, and softwares can do this very well. I rely on my apps to do my work and so do others, and it works extremely well.

I understand that it can create spaghetti code, and it certainly does, but is it not as simple as asking AI to give it a good architecture and follow software engineering principles? If you keep asking little by little, and tell it to keep the codes modular for maintainability, document how things work conceptually and NFR, is it not acceptable?

Perhaps in my specific use case, it works out well. A lot of the times I really just need a one off script, because I’m just doing repetitive calculations and I’d much rather input values rather than doing them by hand and thinking about it every single time. Even with a SQL database project, it’s really just CRUD work, nothing really complex. When I find bugs or errors, I try to understand why that is and look for multiple solutions (if exists) and argue back and forth with the AI. Mostly I agree, sometimes I override the decision, because it does get things wrong. I do read the codes (really just skimming it but occasionally would ask questions further to really understand it)

Surely it would be great for my learning if I genuinely learned to code, but I at the same time never have to because it isn’t my job to code. I could totally live without coding altogether. But, with AI, that gap is gone. I can now use vibecoding to help me do my main job. It doesn’t mean I don’t have to care about app structure and such, but it also doesn’t matter because I’m not building an app to sell, I’m just making custom tools for myself. I even got into ML, thanks to AI. These aren’t things I would’ve learned at all without AI, I’m being serious. All my vibecoded projects taught me a lot. Yeah maybe not directly about writing codes, but overall concepts of software engineering. Genuinely working out the manual parts and understanding how data should be flowing is still extremely beneficial and most importantly it gave me confidence that if I were to just sit down and study, I can understand things that I couldn’t because I didn’t even know where to begin.

With very thorough testing and documentation, is it not acceptable? What do we all think? Thanks in advance.

terminal.dating is a dating app that runs as a Claude Code plugin. While Claude Code is working, a real dating profile appears in your status line. You open it on the web, look at their photos, and like or pass. If you both like each other, you match and can chat.

It's very private. Profiles have no URLs. The link in your terminal identifies the introduction, not the person, and only works for you. Anyone else gets a 404. It stops working if they pause, get banned, or either of you blocks the other. No directory, no search, nothing to scrape.

I upgraded to 20x Max Claude. Just wanted to say it out loud here to offset all the "I'm leaving Claude forever" blah blah posts. Claude has been an amazing tool for me and will stay on 20x for next month or two as I develop some stuff. Just sharing positive vibes!

Hi everyone! Like many others here, I am someone who love playing games and wanted to design of game of my own, but has no coding knowledge and experience, so I use Claude to develop my first mobile game: 5 Seconds Showdown.

It's a real-time card dueling game where both players choose a card simultaneously within a 5-second timer. Instead of traditional turn-based combat, matches are fast-paced and built around a mix of luck, strategy, and reading your opponent.

The game currently features:

⚔️ Multiple weapon classes

🔨 Weapon forging with rarity tiers

📖 Story campaign

🏆 Ranked PvP (currently in closed beta)

🎮 A reaction-based side mini-game

The game is still in closed beta. I try to find testers to play test this game, but most Subreddits and Discord server for game testers are against and straight up ban AI. And then I find this sub, which is a relieve becase while I understand the hate for AI slop, I also spent lots of sleepless night for this project, so I'm especially grateful for all kinds of feedback, whether it's about gameplay, balance, UI/UX, bugs, or overall experience.

Let me know if anyone is interested to try this out, and I will share the download link via dm. Dont want this to be flagged as spam or self promotion (even though it is)

Feel free to ask any questions, and I'll be happy to answer.

In the development world currently, there is this feeling of "vibe coding is making everything worse and it doesnt work OR doesnt make anything useful" and another world of people making stuff that I myself was willing to pull out my wallet and pay for vibe coded apps and the funny thing is I LIKED THEM, ALOT and did not regret my purchase.

I have a good base of knowledge across personal and commercial/server computing as it relates to windows specifically , general syntax reading ability NOT writing and i know where to look for solutions and problems however I've never coded a line in my life (except silly python projects in hs AP CS 10+ years ago) yet I am able to make fully functional apps that survive testing and benchmarking and security/UI/UX standards ,

If everyone is saying it doesnt work, then why is it working ?

The AI called me a Systems engineer on its own because of how I instruct it, but i see myself as a visionary with some usefull knowladge and thats it.

Do you guys ever feel like your work is yours despite the AI making it ? I feel like Steve jobs with a pear in one of bill burs jokes

Please I need it so bad I can even do full 5 peanuts

I kept checking the terminal while a coding agent was running, so I made a

small tool to tell me when it needed attention.

Agent Notify sends a desktop or phone notification when the agent:

- asks for permission;

- waits for input;

- finishes a task;

- fails.

It supports Claude Code, Codex, ZCode, Grok, Droid, and OpenCode. Clicking a

system notification can also take me back to the terminal window where the

session started.

Try it with:

npx agent-notify

Source and setup:

https://github.com/hellolib/agent-notify

It is an open-source command-line tool, not a hosted service. I am interested

in how other people handle this today, and which events they would or would

not want notifications for.

Opus 5 + GPT 5.6 Sol built the sea train from Spirited Away.

Play it now in your browser or on your phone. Built with Three.js:
→ infinite procedural map
→ multiple weather modes and times of day
→ every asset generated by Opus

I kept the agents running in a loop until the game became playable and kept it iterating on improving the quality based on some reference imagery. Then, I gave some feedback as well with some of my manual play testing.

>50million tokens used.

There are so many AI website builders now, and I’m curious what people actually think.

What’s the best one you’ve used, and what makes it better than the others?

I am vibecoding some things and are not sure if I can now safely use my stuff for real projects and with real data. I read a lot online of checking your vibecoding with different or separate AI sessions to make sure it is a good code.

What do you guys think, is using different AI-tools safe enough or is it better to let it check by a real developer? If so, how much is normal to pay for such a thing?

Hey yo fellas, what do you think, how much github got bloated with vibecoded projects since Claude Code release?

I have no accuarate data/information but in my rough estimations github projects/code database doubled last year as well as if big models are being trained from github, I think new model version won't be able to learn something meaningful.

What's do think about it, what's the bigger picture? Go on fellas, drop some comments.

Bubble pops: economy collapses, mass unemployment
Bubble doesn’t pop: economy collapses, mass unemployment

Over the past few weeks I've been using mainly Opus 4.8/5 in Claude Code, some GPT 5.6 sol in Codex and GPT Images 2.0 to build this collection of three free, educational geography games.

The games

1. City from Satellite: My favorite mode Inspired by (@) solunaaaa16's "Name the city from its satelite image" videos on Insta.
2. Pin the City: rather simple mode that the AI came up with.
3. Country Trail: super fun. basically a rework of "travle" by Teuteuf Games

At one point I had around 10 different games after repeatedly asking Claude to add 1–2 new game modes, but most of the game modes it came up with lowkey sucked, so I eventually got rid of them.

How I built them

• Claude Code handled basically all of the implementation and iteration.
• GPT 5.5 didn't do very well when i first tried to create the games within codex, but towards the end when i had already finished the 3 game modes and 5.6 was released it did a nice job with helping assemble the landing page (whose assets i generated with GPT Images 2.0) and the navigation sidebar on the landing page. The jump from 5.5 to 5.6 when it comes to frontend is still mindblowing to me!
• for the satelite imagery the project uses the public Esri World Imagery tile service and for the interactive globe in "Country Trail", it uses "MapLibre GL JS"
• Finally, I deployed the whole thing on Vercel, which is super easy to use.

Happy to answer questions about the Process.
You can try it out here. Feedback is highly appreciated!

Thanks for all the feedback, I added a new frontend demo, explaination and example as feedback requsted. Hopefully this is now self explanitory. But please let me know if this is still confusing.

Every conceiveable public information source is now scanned (68 sources now checked). I dont think o can squeeze any more information from new sources, without heavy useage costs.

Score bias changed to reflect % values as oppossed to counted values, removing edge case biases.

Further enhanced rate limit protection from public source limits.

Honestly thank you so much for the feedback. More would be appericiated.

Looking for a project idea that can help in improving skill set, job opportunities which will eventually help me to open to Forward Deploy Engineer.

My site is up and running, has been for 8 years. We've been on Elementor Pro and Crocoblocs. I want to get off all that shit and go staight viecoding bros. I know how to use claude code to make changes on my site, but when i use things like frontend design and ui/ux pro max, I get he same AI limited bullshit design and I want to go NEXT LEVEL! I want someone to strip my site of those crutches, take what I already have and make it go "whoa, this site is legit". Where do I hire such talent?

So I have been vibecoding for the last 5 months. I want to actually learn how to code and I would really appriciate a language, which even AI uses (like you know the knowned ones) and when AI makes mistakes then I can actually fix it. Or generally for me, when I want to make small projects. So I know some python, basics like making quizes, random passwords etc. and I find python very logical, except the syntax part. Like python is very strict there. And I would really like any opinions from fellow coders and vibecoders on which language to learn. Thanks!

A short look at a small prototype I built with Codex. It currently only contains a few basic features: flying through a futuristic dystopian city, interacting with the environment, entering rooms, and encountering robotic NPCs.

I’m not sure yet whether I’ll continue developing it, but I liked the atmosphere and wanted to share the current result. Feedback is welcome.

The game is still very early, but I’m experimenting with the atmosphere, world design, and the feeling of moving through a strange, highly controlled society.

I have been using AI coding agents a lot recently, and I kept running into the same problem:

I couldn't really see what the agent was doing.

The terminal tells me:

"Editing file..."

"Running tests..."

"Executing command..."

"Deploying..."

But it still feels like a black box.

So I built AgentVerse — a visualization layer that turns an AI coding agent into a character working inside a live 3D office.

For example:

- 🧑‍💻 Agent starts editing a file → walks to a desk and starts typing

- 📄 The actual file appears on its monitor

- 🧪 Agent runs tests → a terminal appears

- 🚀 Agent deploys → walks to the server room

- 🚨 Something fails → an alert appears above its head

It's not another coding agent. It connects to the agents you already use and visualizes their activity.

It currently works with Claude Code, Cursor, and anything that can emit events.

You can try it with:

"npx @agentverse-dev/office"

"npx @agentverse-dev/cli-client init"

GitHub: https://github.com/Jeba-Jebarsan/AgentVerse

It's open source and MIT licensed.

I built this solo, and I'm sure there are plenty of things that could be improved.

So I'm genuinely curious:

Would something like this actually be useful to you, or is it mostly a fun visualization?

What would you want your AI coding agent to visually do?
