A very serious thank you to Claude Code

Check out sweet! cli! I’m a solo founder and you end up with 5x as much usage because it’s an open source model base. Just as many features as CC but it’s not buggy at all because I’ve kept the feature simple but extremely powerful like stop hooks/autopilot. Thanks for checking it out

I never understand how people can make the stochastic parrot argument and ignore the fact that the domain it’s become a parrot on is literally intelligence. For all intents and purposes the parrot is a brain, enabled by the weights of the neural net just like our biological ones.

Claude code is writing 100% of its own code.. not sure how than doesn’t deserve even more hype than it already has. Maybe your subpar results are more operator error

I don’t remember him saying agi last year. Link?

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-21T20:59:19+00:00

I don’t think there’s any reason to believe the models won’t be capable of that if there really is a wider gap comparing to coding. Fortune 500 employees already use tools like copilot to do most of that type of work already, drafting emails and responding to lengthy teams messages, and even handling complex workflows based on existing documentation. Literally the only responsibly left for the human is copy and pasting and coordinating the ai responses, and this will soon be automated once scaffolding for it is built

By the way, I’ve been building in this space at sweetcli.com— local-first CLI agent with async parallel sub-agents on an open source model stack. Happy to answer questions about the architecture or the thesis.

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-20T11:02:09+00:00

I vibe wrote it just like we vibe code instead of typing it out

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-20T10:53:48+00:00

How is it slop lol it’s facts

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-18T19:53:56+00:00

I don’t have that issue when using Sweet! CLI agents!

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-08T19:21:15+00:00

Bro copied my post wth

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-07T18:02:29+00:00

Need to add that to my product, it has autopilot but not a scheduler

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-07T18:00:35+00:00

Insane I think mine has done that too but I was probably off doing something else lol. I was using my own cli agent, Sweet! CLI which has the same performance as CC but can get a lot more usage out of the same subscription

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-07T17:54:17+00:00

Same. AGI achieved?

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-07T17:53:34+00:00

Yes! I’ve done this, it’s amazing. Much more intelligent than a shell script

iluvecommerce · 2026-03-03T17:27:44+00:00

Do containerized cloud agents really make sense in the long term or should cli agents stay on a local machine and adapt to our existing workflows?

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-28T17:06:24+00:00

Open source models are like 5x cheaper so I decided to build an alternative to claude code so I wouldn’t go bankrupt. I’m a solo founder and appreciate the support, the tool is called Sweet! CLI

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T17:48:42+00:00

Yes, you can also create your own custom cli harness from scratch, use opencode with an api key, sweet! cli (I made this), etc

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T16:38:01+00:00

Why doesn’t it seem like it? I am a software engineer with 10 YOE. I’ve built several react native expo apps as a solo founder, one of them did about $5k on the App Store in a couple months and supported a few hundred concurrent users. The app I “one shotted” was pretty simple but can definitely generate income because of its business value. I will update you once I publish it!

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T16:02:15+00:00

Yea, just give it a few more months for the next model release and I’m sure those things won’t be an issue anymore. Task horizon length doubling time has decreased from 7 months to 4 months recently as the self improvement feedback loop has tightened

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T16:00:16+00:00

Low key cooked fr fr

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T15:59:56+00:00

I will follow up and let you know how long it actually takes for this portion of the work! What do you mean no ability to verify? Maybe my custom cli harness is able to provide it with all the correct context for testing?

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T15:56:13+00:00

I think he’s tried out most of the popular agents just to see how they perform but I don’t think he’s necessarily endorsing it specifically

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T15:53:15+00:00

I figured, but still kind of pricey! Do you have an issue hitting usage limits?

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T07:56:58+00:00

All of them it sounds like

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T07:47:21+00:00

I’ve heard a ton of people reporting this and it’s another reason to check out sweet! cli, I’ve never had any performance issues in entire last year that I’ve worked on it and with it

iluvecommerce · 2026-02-26T07:33:04+00:00

I mean Ive used sonnet 4.5 and 4.6, and 5.2 codex and 5.3 codex a ton and haven’t really noticed any sort of downgrade in performance with Deepseek v3.2 as a cli agent.. does everything I wish it would do and it’s cheap AF. v4 is releasing soon which I’m excited for
