What are people's thoughts on this? https://www.linkedin.com/posts/rhonda-silva-b0a2aa52_codex-for-open-source-openai-dev[…]bDbPXxrEs6bqoBL_oWk&utm_campaign=share_via&skipRedirect=true

I think it’s like a drug dealer giving you a little taste, just to get you hooked on the product 😅

Rhonda worked at Seqera until quite recently, which I guess is why she knows to call us out directly :)

That's what I figured. 6 months is also nothing in the grand scheme of things.

I'm always happy for free candies

Yeah, I was kinda thinking that too, but I really just don't want anything to do with OpenAI

I you can convince google you’re a “student” you can get 1 year google one Pro for free 😅

We already have Gemini, CoPilot, Mistral, and Claude (chat) at work. I also have a setup with local models so I really don't need it.

I need an AI to manage my AI

Out of curiosity, how are people using these things at the moment? I mostly use Gemini for brain storming, Claude for small code snippets and PR reviews ( I like that you can go to a PR, add .diff on the end and copy the patch into chat ), and local models to figure out the agentic coding stuff ( I haven't got that far yet ).

Until recently I was using opencode CLI for everything (which I loved) with Claude for 90% tasks (mostly opus) and occasionally codex for when I needed big context / if Claude was hitting a wall. But opencode finally caved to anthropic's lawyers 😭 so I'm back to

claude --dangerously-skip-permissions

(joking / not-joking) until @Edmund manages to sell me on the next AI interface now.

opencode finally caved to anthropic's lawyers

What's the story behind this. I'm not really following it all.

Anthropic want you to use their tools (their CLI etc) if you have a subscription with the dramatically cheaper access. If you use anything 3rd party, they want you to use their much more expensive API access, not under subscription usage. OpenCode worked around this for a while by basically spoofing itself as Claude Code CLI and mimicking the oauth login. It was a bit of an arms race back and forth for a while, but eventually OpenCode caved to lawyer threats 😔

What are you using with Claude? Which skills, hooks, roles, knowledge base, memory, etc?

I use the normal ones a lot: /review /simplify /compact /btw

About those custom skills, would you be open to changing all the

CLAUDE.md

files to

AGENTS.md

? That way other agents can also use the instructions (e.g. gemini cli in my case)

Yeah but Claude doesn't pick up Agents.md 😢(I think)

Isn’t there some kind of config to fix that?

fine by me, but seems a bit hacky 😅
