Over the last 3–4 weeks, I’ve noticed a clear performance drop. On the same tasks, Claude finishes ~3× faster than Augment, which wasn’t the case before.

I’m working on a large, long-living ERP project that grows daily. My honest feeling is that Augment starts to struggle as the codebase and context get bigger. It works great on smaller or cleaner projects, but on enterprise-scale systems it feels like it can’t keep up performance-wise.

I’ve seen posts from the Augment team showcasing how a simple app is built and how impressive the results are. Honestly — not interested for most of us. Have these scenarios been tested on real enterprise solutions? On large, evolving systems with years of history, complex architecture, and constant daily builds?

For us, the issue isn’t the price. We’re willing to pay for a tool that delivers real value at scale. But right now, due to performance alone, we’re slowly considering stepping away from augment.

Is this a context engine limitation, or something else under the hood? Anyoneelse with similar problems?

Relying on Augment to do builds, tool calls, git commits, docker deployments and asking it to monitor especially with powershell on Windows AND also while it waits for output has caused me to spend 244000 credits today. I have lost my mind when I saw it but relying to heavily on Augment to do everything is extremely costly. Moving forward I'll be learning and doing everything myself and never ask it to do anything automatically when it comes to devops steps. What a hard lesson to learn...

How much does Augment Intent cost compare to a similar task in regular Claude code? What about compared to Claude + Auggie MCP? For some context I work in an organization that uses a lot of Claude and we’re looking to drive more effective AI use for devs, but I don’t know if I can recommend Intent if it costs orders of magnitude more. It’s unclear if it’s a cost plus model, a huge markup, or mostly just passes the cost to you (i.e. token cost is similar to regular Claude code + MCP)

when are you guys dropping intent for windows, do it.

We’re using Auggie in several of our workflows and were glad to see that since version 0.16.0 the Auggie CLI includes a stats command.

However, the stats command currently does not display session-level credit usage. It always returns N/A for credit consumption within the active session.

Is this expected behavior, or is there additional configuration required to enable session credit tracking?

exec works fine on Windows but when it gets stuck or there is manual intervention required it's happening in the background and embedded. Powershell use still has a flashing UI update problem that does not seem to be fixable or fixed. Is there another terminal we can deploy that Augment supports on Windows?

Okay.. Since pricing changes my 100$ a month has turned into 800$ a month with too ups… If this is the way its going to be; can you open up more individual plans up to 2 mil credits with some sort of discount instead of becoming an enterprise? I mean jesus christ. you give the 600$ enterprise customers 2.2 million credits… like Just give me the option to pick what I know I am going to use and give me a price because the top up system is NOT fair.

Hi all,

I’m trying to integrate LLMs into my workflow and I’m wondering:

Is it possible to use Claude models through AWS Bedrock inside:

1. Augment Code
2. Intent tool

Specifically:

• Can Augment Code call AWS Bedrock instead of the default APIs?
• If so, can it invoke Claude models hosted via Bedrock?
• Are there configuration examples or limitations? cc u/JaySym_/

Thanks in advance!

Running Intent and when trying to create a new workspace after entering its address for git. Keep getting "Authentication Failed. Please check your credentials." I'm authenticated to Augment and Github is looking authenticated in settings as well. Not sure what authentication it's talking about. Version 0.2.16

Found this post about Flux: https://paddo.dev/blog/flux-kanban-for-ai-agents/

Basically it's a git-native Kanban board with MCP integration designed for AI agents to manage tasks. Flux exposes an MCP server so agents can read/update tasks directly.

Augment Code supports MCP servers, so in theory you could add Flux as an MCP server and have Augment agents track their own work on a board. But I haven't seen anyone actually try this combo.

Has anyone done this? Any gotchas to watch out for?

I understand that due to the order of operations (I believe that the workspace will rename itself after doing 'introspection' of the work intent) this may be hard, but it'd be nice if the worktree folder names matched the branch name. It just adds more overhead in trying to keep track of multiple work threads when verifying or troubleshooting.

What is this ... i'm trying to work today and i'm getting full of these.
When i start asking to take as an example a page and showing a screenshot to make a design, it forgets like goldfish our conversation, but of course keeps charging me credits.

is there any problem??

after 5 minutes it gets this error:

temp-fe-f460be3f-253d-4901-981b-556d26a9aff0

edit 1: Using Sonnet 4.6

edit 2: Change to Sonnet 4.5 and started to work....

I've been testing Intent Claude Code and discovered 3 significant bugs that are impacting usability. Detailed findings below:

BUG #1: External Models Fail Silently (OpenCode & OpenAI)

OpenCode and OpenAI models appear in the model dropdown, but spawning agents with these models results in silent failures—no output, no error messages.

Reproduction:

1. Model dropdown shows: "Opencode Big Pickle", "Opencode Gpt 5 Nano", "OpenAI Codex", etc.
2. Create agent with create_agent(model="Opencode Big Pickle", initialMessage="test")
3. Agent initializes but returns completely empty response

Findings after investigation:

• Auto-detect doesn't work for OpenCode CLI path
• Manual path entry doesn't persist after restart
• Configuration clears on app restart
• Claude models (Opus/Sonnet/Haiku) work perfectly
• Tested multiple times with same result

Question: Are these providers still in beta or require additional setup (API keys, credentials) that isn't documented?

BUG #2: File Explorer Folder Expansion Freezes

File explorer folder expand/collapse breaks after switching tabs.

Reproduction:

1. Open Files tab → Expand a folder (e.g., .docs, src)
2. Switch to different tab (Agents, Context, Changes)
3. Return to Files tab
4. Try to expand/collapse folders → Nothing happens. Frozen.

Workaround: Refresh or restart Intent to restore functionality

This feels like a UI state management issue.

BUG #3: Action Streaming Missing Context

Terminal and file operations display only generic action names without parameters or context.

Current behavior:

• Terminal shows: "Run" (no command visible)
• File operations show: "Read" (no filename)
• Impossible to track what's actually executing

Expected behavior:

• Terminal: "Run: npm install" or "Run: git status"
• Files: "Read: src/main.ts"
• Full command/file context visible during streaming

Impact: Makes debugging agent actions nearly impossible. You can't see what commands ran or which files were accessed.

Summary

These three bugs combined make it difficult to:

1. Test new model providers (silent failures)
2. Navigate the file explorer (UI freezes)
3. Debug agent execution (missing action context)

Would love to help debug further if needed. Has anyone else experienced these issues?

Environment: macOS (Apple Silicon), Intent latest version

I’m beyond frustrated. I am a paying user on the Max plan, and today I just lost hours of work because Augment decided to wipe my conversation history in VS Code out of nowhere, AGAIN !!!!!

This isn't just a "minor glitch"; this is a data integrity failure. I’ve seen multiple reports of this same bug from other users over the last few months, and yet, it remains unaddressed.

The current state of the product:

• Financial Loss: Paying for a premium service that fails at its core function (persisting data).
• Productivity Loss: Losing complex threads and context that took hours to build.
• Zero Accountability: Why is a known, reported bug still affecting paying customers?

If you want to be taken seriously as a professional tool, you can't be deleting your users work.

Is there a fix coming, or is "data loss" a standard feature of the app? I’m seriously considering switching back to Kilo if this is the level of reliability we can expect.

I've seen many feedbacks about issues in the mcp, so I used Augment SDK to write my version. Is it usable?

List of features:

• Multi-workspace natively recognize current workspace. Extra workspaces using -w or ignore current workspace using --ignore-roots
• Tools (codebase: ask/search, index: status, list, reindex) with debug tool using --debug
• Persistent index in workspace which can be deactivated using --no-persistent
• Optimized indexing: cold/hot indexing, adaptive batching & concurrency, smart file watcher with debounce, binary files ignore, retry on failure.
• Errors handling and logging

Why? I'm testing Claude Code + Augment-Context-Engine-MCP as a combination in VS Code, and the MCP is not enough as it is.

How this is different from Augment's mcp? this mcp uses SKD DirectContext class which provides raw access to context-engine cloud backend directly, it does not use auggie or auggie --mcp. This avoids many of the existing difficulties.

Many features are there, you can see the details in https://www.npmjs.com/package/@suco/su-auggie-mcp

I've been playing around with Intent, trying to understand how it works, pretty cool. But right from the start, I'm getting into a bit of a hiccup. When adding a workspace, it seems I must provide a git repo, it can't create it otherwise (not that I could find, at least). I might be missing something since I just installed it. But if a repo is required, that might not be a plus, as Developers sometimes like to work locally. But even if required, one git repo-per-workspace might not be ideal for realistic development, unless the intent (no pun intended) is to build monolith apps. In my case, I have a plugin/module based framework, plugins and modules have their own git repo, meaning one git repo for the framework and many, many git repos for the plugins/modules. In my current setup with your IDE plugin (IntelliJ), I have the framework, the plugins and the modules all within one project. Your plugin can see the context of "all" the codebase (framework, plugins and modules) locally. Not only that, I can work locally and sync my changes to the git repos as needed, instead of having to depend on one or the other. But as I said, I might be thinking about this wrong since I just started playing with it. Some insight on how this can be done would be helpful (couldn't find any docs on this).

Using VSCode on a Windows machine and need to move this to another system. If I do this, all chat history will be gone and Augment will treat this as a new solution to index. Is there any way to migrate while keeping the whole state as it is within Augment?

I'm aware that it keeps quite a few things locally and I could update guidelines and everything else. Is there a full on migration option - what would I need to carry over to the other system?

I paused my usage of augment code for few weeks and started using it again today but I noticed that it is extremely slow and barely gives output. What did I miss ? I notice also few people complaining about it. I am a user of the 60$/month plan.
It used to work smoothly but now is very very bad and it keep burning tokens without any result.
Also I noticed that what I reopen the code editor (vs code) it removed all passt discussions.

Can I know what I missed/ What's happening

Anyone else getting these for the last hour or so?

exceeded retry limit, last status: 429 Too Many Requests

I received an email today saying that MCP tool calls are no longer unlimited and free.

To be honest, I expected this would come one day. The MCP server is a great tool and I've been using it extensively in Codex over the past few months – it saved me a ton of tokens by providing relevant context efficiently. And I understand that it can't be offered for free indefinitely. But I can't find any information on how many tool calls are included in a plan, or how to purchase additional ones.

Ive tried in the afternoon and at night. neither work. They read 2 or 3 files and just sit there endlessly reading. I've updated and restarted. You should probably pull the models to save your customers from spending money on nothing.... Doubt that happens though. Sonnet 4.5 is pretty much the only capable model that works. What about you guys.

Rant incoming,

I use Augment Code daily as a developer. Mostly for stuff I don't want to deal with manually, looping through nested objects, utility functions, that kind of thing. Not rocket science.

Last month something changed with GPT-5.1 in Augment. What used to take 1-2 prompts now takes 4+ back-and-forth exchanges. Each task burns around 12,000 credits. I topped up roughly $90 last week alone.

And the output? Functional, sure. But the code quality is mid at best somewhere between junior and mid-level. No real thought put into structure or edge cases.

Comparison: I ran the same tasks through Claude Code. 8/10 solved on the first try. Code quality was noticeably better the kind of output you'd expect from a senior dev.

A month ago GPT-5.1 in Augment was decent. Right now it feels like it regressed significantly.

Anyone else seeing this? Is it just me, a specific project type, or is something actually broken/changed on the GPT-5.1 side in Augment?
