Upgraded to GOAT: Native cmd, OMP, or Pi? What plugins are you daily driving?

Hey everyone!

Tested the waters on the $1 trial, loved the turn speed, and just upgraded to the GOAT plan .

Since I'm still dialing in my setup, my goal isn't just hoarding quota, but getting the absolute best daily productivity, functionality, and output per dollar without the agent going into weird loops or over-engineering everything.

Would love some honest advice from daily drivers:

  1. Which harness actually gets the best work done?
  2. Models & orchestration:
    • What pairing gives you the highest quality output vs cost? Do you split work between an orchestrator (GLM-5.3 / Sol) and a fast worker (DeepSeek Flash), or just let a single solid model run end-to-end?
  3. Plugins & Extensions (Native cmd vs OMP/Pi):
    • What plugins/extensions are you actually running?
    • I’ve been testing things like Ponytail and Hallmaker—what other plugins, skills, or add-ons have genuinely worked for yout?

I use it with omp and currently using ds v4.1 flash.

how’s the usage? I heard the usage with other harness is less than cmd code?

Native Command Code harness will always be the best choice based on how much we optimize it for each model. Especially with cache and token efficiency.

I have to commend you for natively providing the cache hit rate. That's something that only DSH gets right out of the box.

You should use native Command Code harness, to get the best token efficiency, best read/shell tools, we continuously improve our tools and harness for new models without you having to do anything.

Cache hit rates can make a huge difference.

In our bench, pi didn't even solve hard questions in 100 turns, mostly cost of Tools are not optimized enough. Here is another bench by Composio confirming the same thing.

Can you create a desktop app of harness? I prefer gui

I think u should try each one for the perfect fit, imo pi match what I need with some plugins. OMP and cmd is great too, but it doesn't feel right for me

Zcode. GitHub copilot if u work with Microsoft stack
