The new btca experience, now just a skill b/c it's way better: Turns out the best way to let coding agents search github for context is to let them search github repos for context

Michael Arnaldi suggested cloning the effect repo as a git subtree, giving it to Claude, then using that as docs It sounds absurd, but it's actually kind amazing lol Setup a custom OpenCode agent that has all the context on where the files are then it kinda just works I feel like this could definitely be refined but idk if I even care enough. Stuff like cursor/opencode/claude code is already so good at searching codebases that I don't really care to do anything more

This is very late, but I'm finally done with my 5.5 vid - use low reasoning - the name sucks - it's fast - best code I've ever seen a model write came from this model - openai's new pre-training is amazing - price looks worse than it is - over sensitive to every little thing in it's context window - feels wildly different compared to 5.4 - turn reasoning off. try it. turn the reasoning off. do it.

I was wrong about GPT-5.5 Kinda I still stand by everything I've said about low reasoning, it's incredible and I still use it all the time esp with Pi But I'm also doing a ton with xHigh reasoning, and especially computer use in the codex desktop app

A video I never thought I would make: defending GStack I honestly wrote it off as a meme, but the concept is actually really really cool Idk exactly what this turns into long term, but the idea of "markdown file == program" has so much unexplored potential

I've spent a lot of time customizing my Pi setup It's quickly become my favorite coding agent, u just need to make it yours Made a vid on how (TL;DR, just tell it to change itself and it will):

Haiku 4.5 has finally been dethroned by GPT 5.4 mini: - faster - cheaper - smarter - better at tool calling Gemini 3.0 flash still has a place in “turn this video/audio/blob of text into json”, but for any small model task that requires an agent loop (sub agents, search, quick fixes, browser use, etc.) GPT-5.4 mini is the new king

Been testing 5.4 for about a week now and it's really good. It's the first model that kinda "just works". A hybrid of 5.3's precision and opus' speed/initiative I've done ~300 million tokens with it and it's crushed almost everything I've given it. Except for UI. It's hilariously bad at UI stuff.

0xSero helped me setup local models properly and I uh, had no idea these things had gotten this good Are they frontier level? No, but considering this is running on just my 5090 it's remarkably capable First tests on a couple of programming tasks and the qwen 3.6-27b model with no reasoning feels about on par with something like sonnet 4-ish, probably better it's really impressive But also setting up local models isn't easy, I don't know nearly enough to talk much about it yet other than you need to know what you're doing to have a good experience. The out of the box stuff is not nearly as good as setting it up correctly

I'm tired and need to go to bed, it's 4AM, but it's live: - setup as many git repos as "resources" as you want - "@" them in the chat UI and haiku 4.5 will use them to answer your question - $8/mo. for the hosted version, cli is BYOK - open source
