I'm also using Claude Code and am very familiar with it, but haven't had a chance to try Qwen3 Coder 30B A3B for any real-world development. That said, it did well with my "kick the tires" tests, and some reports show that it's comparable to Sonnet (at least before adding the various levels of 'think' directives):
