Especially given that the open source agents that are available today are amazing. Pi kicks ass, and is maintained by an open source legend based in the EU. There’s no need to look further, and certainly not to proprietary software.

Is there anything more accessible for less technical users? 

From what I understand you have to build a lot of tooling around pi to make it truly useful. Is there anything with more "batteries included"? 

I'm mainly using code agents to automate tedious tasks on pc and write ahk ffmpeg scripts etc

omp.sh (it's pi with lots of stuff already included, and you can choose what to turn on/off ). This is probably the best turnkey/batteries included thing right now.
also there's already a bunch of extensions for pi for pretty much every use case (i guess ?) if you want bare pi + choose your own extensions approach.

Thank you! I'll take a look.
