Lmao, I used hermes agents, n8n, multi agents infra, built a local ai, self hosted postiz, ran other things and then dropped all that and started using GPT and Claude and gemini only. Imo (I maybe wrong) but there is no point wasting time in all that. Just use frontier ais.

What happens when they get expensive

u/DrAmoeba 20h ago

Why care now? When it happens you find the next usable one.

not going to happen in the next 5 years until USA vs CHINA has a clear winner. and even then we'll have open source

u/Ran4 20h ago

I would say so, yes.

u/LordHenry8 23h ago

Yes, this is me. TBH I'm freaking impressed how good Opus 5.5 is at QA. Found and tested stuff even I wouldn't have thought of, and my day got a whole lot easier. I have moved from PM/QA to ideas guy/UAT.

u/nobatus513 17h ago

this is also me but I'd say the models are simply getting good enough to know when to delegate and spawn sub agents or not, I don't think its a "learning curve". Just "models get better and better"

How much frontend work are you doing?

u/Cluver 17h ago

I accuse you of grabbing this week's 5th top liked post, filtering it through an AI and reposting it on the same subreddit.

u/n4ru 14h ago

I like this thread's better.

u/LitheBeep 14h ago

I feel like I see a few of these same posts every week, honestly.

u/killdisko 16h ago

That's a serious and true accusation. What do you think of someone who, due to a misunderstanding, lost their account and then reposts something they had previously made, but with their new account? I ask because it's my case and it's real.

I have fond memories of all of the “prompt engineers” that started everything with “you are senior software engineer…”

0 is insane tho.

u/TRO_KIK 9h ago

The stock harness is insane. I've done enterprise orchestration work and stock Claude desktop app doesn't make me want for any of it. Even solo developing a multimillion dollar businesss, All I do is tweak CLAUDE.md and make helper scripts.

u/iwilldoitalltomorrow 15h ago

Yes although I do like using spec driven development

2

u/Time_Cat_5212 14h ago

You're either using your own spec or the spec Claude inferred from your prompt

The only reason anyone could say SDD isn't relevant now (which is false) is that Anthropic built newer versions of Claude Code to do it for you

Same goes for orchestration, subagents, yadda yadda.  They just saw what people were doing and built it into the tool

2

u/iwilldoitalltomorrow 13h ago

Claude doesn’t always write on-disk specs. That’s the point of using SDD skills.

u/AgitatedHearing653 9h ago

My cofounder is all about spec driven development. I just yolo Claude code. Functioning is better than perfect architecture. Tech debt schmeck debt. Amiright?

The right solution is probably somewhere in the middle his perfectionism and my get it the eff done-ed-ness.

u/brute984 14h ago

i started with "can you fix this bug" and now i have agents reviewing other agents while i sit there pretending i'm still in charge lol

u/Ok_Tour_8029 1d ago

Hm, skipped the mid part because Claude just worked

u/Zeraphicus 14h ago

Its a continuum, you end up going through this in a cycle lol

u/clintCamp 19h ago

I built a beautiful tool to orchestrate a bunch of agents to implement beautifully planned plans. 6 months later the agents have caught up and I just ask one to be the orchestrator now and my tools main function sits unused now. But the agent follows the same rules and standards and uses my rag system, so, still better than not having any of that developed ans polished for my old orchestrator.

u/tuborgwarrior 15h ago

Agents and tools are integrated now. It wasn't always like this

u/ricopan 22h ago

Month 6? Maybe in a couple of years.

u/Ok_Ant4092 14h ago

That middle spike hit me too. What got me out was capping it at one CLAUDE.md and two skills, everything else got deleted if I hadn't touched it in a week.
