I disagree. I've tried Codex, and two of the provider-agnostic harnesses (Pi and OMP), and I strongly prefer Claude Code.

I disagree. I've tried Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and Pi, and I _strongly_ prefer Pi.

I suppose it truly boils down to personal taste? My take[0] on AI including harnesses.

    piagent vs Claude code are completely different target audiences...

    If you drew a venn diagram of their prospective users, the overlap ain't gonna be big. I get that they're both harnesses, but claude is clearly trying to optimize for the agentic development loop, while piagent is more about hand holding - unless you add the agentic features yourself (which is pretty easy, but again completely different target audience to cc).

That's quite surprising, of the set {Claude Code, Codex, Pi, OMP} I must say I find CC to be the worst.

They all have some annoying downsides and I use CC the most, but it's gotten to the point where I'm for sure actively shopping around for better harnesses.
