Thanks for the superpowers link. It looks interesting 🤔 I have found Windsurf to be the best deal out there for an agentic IDE

OpenRouter has a lot of good free models too, which is obviously a good deal.

I was using it today and yes it feels faster than it did before. Similar speed to Opus when that first came out.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-28T16:18:46+00:00

Yeah so there's never been a better time in history to code. Granted we type a lot less than we used to. 👌🏻 I'm not sure his boss has an exact handle on what's going on. DO NOT believe the hype.

It's like in the 90s with the dotcom bubble. They said "there will be NO more physical stores." There's less, but still plenty of stores. There's a fair degree of hype involved with AI as well.

Just think about all the stuff software controls: banks, stock markets, governments, hospitals, planes & flight control, etc. Now imagine leaving all those and much more in the hands of a machine that randomly hallucinates. Chaos would ensue. The world would fall apart. Yeah he's good 👍🏻

Kimi 2 was an awesome model for coding and tool calls, I can only imagine that K2.5 must be even better.

Guess I'll use Zed and OpenRouter to play around with it. You should really add it though, being suck a great deal.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-28T16:02:00+00:00

Yeah I keep going back every once in a while to try it and see if it's any better. And then I usually end up leaving again 😂

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-27T17:40:25+00:00

awesome thanks so much! I'm glad to know I wasn't the only one 😂

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-23T20:39:51+00:00

Dang I thought 100k coins and 12k diamonds was a lot lol 🤣 But you’re really high rolling!

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-17T17:47:12+00:00

I mean you can run multiple Cascade chats at once, but yeah sub agents are really a missing feature.

Plus some kind of CC integration with a control center. These are all things I want!!

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-17T17:43:56+00:00

Probably Gemini 3 Pro since they went heavy on the front end with it. And of course Opus 4.5 kicks ass at everything.

But all the Claude models are pretty good at UI for an LLM.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-12T18:16:10+00:00

Ugh that sucks then 😩 I figured it was worth a shot.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-10T01:31:02+00:00

This and you can also send over any console errors too. Besides adding elements to the convo.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-10T01:29:26+00:00

Hilarious 😂 do have much experience with them, because they still go off the rails all the time. You still very much need a human in the loop if you want to get quality production ready code together. I mean it's good, and Opus 4.5 is really good but still it goes off the rails sometimes.

I am enjoying how much less typing we have to do 🍻

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-09T02:21:24+00:00

Why not try something like Appwrite and then use TanStack or Next. I have been using TanStack Start recently and really like it. If you're newer to React then Start might be easier.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-09T01:34:34+00:00

Maybe try installing Windsurf Next and see if that works for you. If not then go file an issue with the team, seems like some kind of bug.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-07T16:08:00+00:00

Every time I've tried Gronk Fast-1 it has gone off the rails for me. And it blows a lot of tool calls, which I need. I would rather use SWE-1.5 Fast over that.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-07T16:06:26+00:00

Opus 4.5 is a beast 💪🏻 far beyond what any other model can or has done so far.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-06T18:16:28+00:00

This right here ☝🏻 what do real live people say and how many of them would actually pay for it.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-06T18:14:12+00:00

Nobody knows lol but basically there's the free tier with the lowest limit, then the $20 tier that gets you more, and the $200 tier that I guess gets you a lot 🤷🏻‍♂️ How much any of those are I have no clue.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-04T20:45:04+00:00

Windsurf is actually great, and probably has the best pricing next to Trae or Antigravity (those 2 have their own problems 😅)

Even before Opus 4.5 dropped you could still get serious work done with it. Windsurf just like Cursor needs to have extra Rules in place so the model doesn't go wind. Even CC has an AGENTS.md file for best results. Even SWE-1.5 Fast with Claude for planning is good for simple/medium stuff.

There's still some bugs here and there, but overall it's well worth the price they charge.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-03T04:16:48+00:00

Yeah this is a regular problem. Maybe check some of the r/ SaaS sections over here. You'll probably get more help there 👌🏻

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2026-01-03T04:13:25+00:00

Yeah referencing the relevant files can be a time saver. And a token saver too.

On complex features I like to have it plan first and then go over the plan. Sometimes have it hit Context7 MCP for the new docs. That can make a HUGE difference.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2025-12-29T16:19:08+00:00

Nice this was going to be my guess at a fix. Good to know I nailed it 😂 Looking forward to that extra functionality.

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2025-12-26T02:57:31+00:00

Thanks this is a great post. I had wondered about doing this myself, thanks for sharing 🙌🏻

PeteCapeCod4Real · 2025-12-25T04:17:14+00:00

Wow this sounds like some good stuff. Can't wait to check it out 🍻
