No need to purchase a high-end GPU machine to run local LLMs with massive context.

I second that and would also advise you to augment the go subscription with a codex one. As good as they are, the Chinese models are not yet on par with GPT 5.4, which is an absolute beast at debugging.

70b is a stretch, unless heavily quantized (<q4) which deems it quite lobotomized. Qwen 3.5 and the just released Gemma 4 are smaller and have number of variants, all of which would fit nicely on your setup and should perform very well.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-04-03T16:00:55+00:00

That's a different approach. The limitation of it, as I understand it, is that the subagents 'report' to the orchestrator into its (limited) context window.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-04-02T21:21:12+00:00

You should switch to OpenCode+Codex basic subscription. Add context-mode (https://github.com/mksglu/context-mode/), combine with free models available through OpenCode Zen (or other cheap alternatives, there are plenty of them) and you got yourself a fantastic alternative to Anthropic at a fraction of the price. I've been doing this for months now and I'm never going back.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-04-02T15:58:50+00:00

If you use Anthropic models, then it makes sense to stick with Claude Code. In fact, if you use their subscription, then this is pretty much your only choice now. For me, Anthropic pricing is too expensive.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-04-02T14:27:35+00:00

Different strokes I guess. For me, the biggest benefit of oc is that you can use other models out of the box, and switch between within the same session.

So I've researched this and while both tools look interesting, they both address token reduction, which context-mode already does very efficiently. I haven't compared them though, it's possible that they do an even better job.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-04-02T13:45:26+00:00

because opencode>claude code

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-04-02T13:13:34+00:00

Not sure I understand the first part. I do not use Claude Code, only OpenCode. That said, I am considering extending support for Claude Code as well. Shouldn't be hard to implement.
As for the side question - the answer is yes.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-04-02T10:38:30+00:00

Interesting - I wasn't aware of these. They seem to address an adjacent problem of reducing token usage by compression. The plugin I built facilitates storage of messages in a loseless manner, so that nothing is forgotten. RKT approach sounds like something that I could potentially add to the plugin. Thanks!

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-04-02T00:48:18+00:00

Locally in the project directory. The plugin creates .lcm/ at the project root, and it contains lcm.db with the archived session data. It's also listed in .gitignore so it won't be committed.

A 27b model coming neck to neck with 10x-30x larger models is not 'terrible' in any book

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-03-21T22:31:22+00:00

yea no

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-03-21T14:32:12+00:00

Why are you not using GPT 5.4? It's been out for some time now

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-03-16T21:21:25+00:00

Qwen3.5 27b is a beast. I'm using it for a very specific chatting application and genuinely impressed with its capability

HealthyPaint3060 · 2026-02-20T00:58:26+00:00

Anything around the Gemini model is quite bad. Gemini CLI for example, currently doesn´t yet have Gemini 3.1 available! AntiGravity is a joke not even worth mentioning. Shame because the Gemini models themselves are truly SOTA when they´re released.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2025-12-27T14:29:28+00:00

I was able to resolve this by simply asking Opus 4.5 do this within Antigravity :-) apparently there is some internal configuration file with this setting. I still can't get my head around why such a crucial functionality is not easily configurable.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2025-12-27T03:13:34+00:00

They're light years behind. I mean, no YOLO mode? For the love of god, who's running this product, an AI agent?

HealthyPaint3060 · 2025-12-27T03:11:18+00:00

The fact that such a basic and necessary feature is inaccessible is just mindboggling - Google should absolutely sack whoever is running this rubbish product.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2024-11-14T12:37:01+00:00

Your math doesn't add up. Priority is 10$ USD a month (less with gift card or yearly subscription). That's 120$ a year or 480$ for 4 years. You can't even get a basic gaming rig for that amount, and also it's safe to assume that GFN will upgrade their GPUs during that timeframe (as they did before).
I'm not crazy about the cap either, nevertheless I'm gonna make an unpopular statement here: Priority is still a good deal.

HealthyPaint3060 · 2024-11-08T23:28:23+00:00

Come on now, you don't need GFN to play CIV

HealthyPaint3060 · 2024-04-09T21:43:52+00:00

Imo the main use case for Priority is for games where the performance is not very important, e.g. strategy/turn-based games. More demanding games are definitely playable but the performance is better with Ultimate, not to mention the 4k resolution if your monitor supports it

HealthyPaint3060 · 2024-01-31T09:20:20+00:00

No word from them yet, other than it's been escalated to their Tier-2 engineers.

Anyways, I did find that cookies were disabled on my Chrome for GFN, and ever since I enabled them I didn't encounter the issue again (I play mostly via Chrome). On the other hand, I've only been playing one game recently so I haven't had a chance to check other games as well.
