What coding agents do you use?
by•
There are tons of great coding agent CLIs and IDEs out there. Which do you use on a regular basis? What stands out as being the killer feature?

Mostly Claude Code and Opencode but I will be building my own.
With laser focus on my needs and requirements.
Claude code gets 55% to 60% there with major homebrew and lots of tweaking and certain concessions.
Gemini CLI leaves a lot to be desired.

@build_with_aj How do you decide which one to use between CC and OpenCode? Is it per repo or depending on what you're trying to do?

If it's a small thing or I'm experimenting, OpenCode
When I want to have my files butchered, Gemini 2.5 flash in gemini CLI.
If it's a major feature Claude Code
but. The more I use these tools the more I run into the limitations of LLMs and the varying quality of the service.
Sometimes API performance dips.
Tried most of these, but after Antigravity launched I’ve been using it daily — the workflow feels lighter and more “agent-native” than IDE-bolted AI. Curious how others feel after longer use.

Interesting but not too surprising to see @Claude Code and @cursor in the lead. For users of either: why one and not the other? Is it CLI vs IDE, or some other factor?
