Harness: opencode

Subscription: opencode go

I also use a claw agent[1] via Telegram, which uses pi.dev under the hood with my opencode go subscription.

[1] I forked one of those Claw projects (bareclaw) and made many changes to it.

When you say harness what do you mean? I see the term thrown around a lot and I think it's lost its meaning in some fashion.

In this context it means the tool you use the models with. So Claude Code is a harness, OpenAI's codex, Opencode, pi, etc. Those are all cli harnesses

A fellow user replied below, but it refers to the software that uses the LLM (Claude Code, Opencode, pi.dev, etc.).

Funny you mention that, because I started noticing the word 'harness' being used everywhere about a month ago, even though I hadn’t seen it before (in this context). As I don’t trust my memory, I assumed I had just been overlooking it and added it to my vocabulary. However, a Google Trends search does show increased usage since the end of March: https://trends.google.com.br/trends/explore?date=today%203-m...

Not OP, but having explored the field a good bit, Openrouter + pi harness in a devcontainer work great as a sane starting point.

Highly recommend as a clean way to try out the upstart models.
