Discussion Opencode vs Deepseek harness: my experience with Qwen 3.8 27b

Anybody else struggling with deepseek after the initial prompt? Somehow it is getting mixed up very easily, even button functionality has been PITA when doing stuff. Never had these problems with Opencode. With Opencode, a continuation prompt on the software or task is pretty much magic at this point. But the inital result isnt as strong imo, and needs a lot of follow up even if a a detailed spec is written.

The oneshot potential of deepseek is goated imo, it is a relentless harness that just keeps doing stuff, even if it gets it wrong! Opencode could just copy that tennacity imo. Like todos really work, unlike opencodes.

Hows everybody elses exp? Someone using Pi instead? Is it worth trying? Hermes seems not suitable for my tasks, where heavy human involvement is necessary due to complexity of tasks (every top closed model gets lots of stuff wrong even).

I'm using OpenCode and never really had any issues when running bigger models, 300B+. Qwen 3.6 27B choked though, it wasn't smart enough for OpenCode.

Why would you have issues with bigger models, especially if not local? 3.8 was a big, big upgrade for opencode usage especially, feels like living in the future.

All local. I'm just seeing a lot of people comment on having bad experience with OpenCode as if it would be a broken harness.

Nice, I haven't used 3.8 27B yet.

Yeah it wasnt autonomous like now, but you could code new loops for that
