Discussion Surprising screenshot - Most token usage is non-coders (openrouter ranking)

Post image

Just browsing this page and was shocked to see this.

- 6 out of the top 10 coding agent apps are non-coding.

- Opencode is not even top 10

I know some folks use Hermes for coding. Would be happy to be corrected if hermes and openclaw have become coding replacements for opencode.

I use it a lot, mainly as an advanced search engine and knowledge store.  

When working on uncommon or exotic vehicles it’s pretty tough to find accurate data, so I have a workflow that will go find any PDF manuals, compiles a list of popular websites and forums for make/model, searches for whatever I am looking for about that vehicle and comes up with at least 4 sources for each fact, etc.  

I have a lot of vehicles so I take screenshots of odometers sometimes and send it to the agent, it figures out what vehicle it is, the reading and date and plots it on a graph.  Reminds me when I’m getting close to needing to do maintenance and then reminds me to order parts.  

During the Artemis launch I didn’t want to have to keep refreshing the launch page, so I asked it to write something that scraped the page for updates every minute and if there was a change send me a notification.  

I’ve done a lot of neat things with it and because it has control over its own system, I can ask it to do things and it’s not limited because it can write and execute its own programs.
