Sure thing buddy. Your formula of bullshit marketing FOMO is disgusting.

Fair pushback on the hook it’s loud on purpose. But the substance stands: repo exists, endpoint swap works, $200/mo saved on small tasks, Sonnet still wins on hard ones. Called out the limitation in the post itself. What part reads as bullshit to you?

Fucking exactly. It stinks of slop. It's the whole formula. It stinks , you need to go clone a new repo or n8n shit man. Or heaven forbid, train the model in your own voice. Sloppy slop face.

Open ecosystems always get interesting when users start optimizing around cost and flexibility.

Open” is generous. The CLI is open, the models aren’t. One signed-token update from Anthropic and this dies overnight.

Anthropic losing users to one repo is funny

Funny until you realize they designed the CLI open enough to make it possible. Endpoint’s just a config value that’s a choice, not a leak.

It’s a war How to find cheaper Claude

Not really a war Anthropic sells the model, the repo just points the CLI elsewhere. The real fight is whether Claude Code stays open enough for this to keep working.

I'm embarassed that I've even asked my AI assistant to check and (in)validate something like this post...🥲

No shame in checking that’s the right instinct with any post that sounds too good. The repo is real, the 20k number is real, the honest part is what I put in the post: it’s not a Sonnet replacement, it’s a cost cut for the tasks that don’t need Sonnet.

Fair enough - that framing I can buy. “Cheap task offloader” is a very different claim from “Sonnet-class replacement.” My bullshit detector was reacting mostly to the packaging, not the repo existing. 😄

its really gamechanging repo

Game-changing if it survives. One endpoint lock from Anthropic and the whole thing dies overnight. Worth using now, don’t build your workflow around it.

The interface is becoming a commodity. Model routing is becoming the differentiator.

I use Kimi dev and is enough for me , for side projects

I've noticed developers care less about the brand name and more about fitting the right model to each task. Routing is becoming a bigger part of the workflow.

I see that Claude is also a contributor, so it is likely that Anthropic had noticed this already.

20,000 devs lost to one GitHub repo. Claude Code bill works differently now. Save $200/mo with free models. Have you made the switch yet?

one mit repo rerouting a whole ai lab's paying users is diabolical turns out the cli was the product all along
