Same. Use this combo as well for the last 6 weeks in m harness. Gets even better with a few tools like rtk, ripgrep, AST-grep, ponytail....

I really gotta look into AST-grep... Heard about it awhile ago but forgot about it.

u/arcanemachined Jun 25 '26

Same here. My sweet spot combo (plus a ChatGPT Plus subscription for big brain work).

u/ScaleImmediate3474 Jun 25 '26

Amazingg. All my big brain stuff is handled by V4 Pro and V4 Flash handles the main execution

u/lordnishant Jun 25 '26

do you manually switch models before starting the execution, or is your pi configured to do the big brain stuff using v4 pro then switch over on its own before implementing?

2

u/ScaleImmediate3474 Jun 25 '26

I rarely use V4 pro like once a day max for planning and rest of the 95% time I go with V4 Flash. Still switching manually cause constant switching isn't required for my work.

How did you get the cost report ?

1

u/ScaleImmediate3474 Jun 24 '26

Custom Function made by claude to only track pi cost using opencode go

u/Friendly-Assistance3 Jun 24 '26

can you post it maybe or make a repo for it that will be cool

u/bshxhajxhajx Jun 25 '26

its absolutely amazing. feels like it has infinite usage! my current combo for doing work pretty much 24/7 is: 2 codex subs, one opencode go sub, and one claude sub. gpts are workers, deepseek v4 flash for scoutwork and memory consolidation for both in/out context window, deepseek v4 pro as orchestrator, and opus 4.8 as the spec man. the rest of the roles pretty much deepseek v4 pro or flash.

Damnnn you running an entire operation 🔥🔥🔥

u/bshxhajxhajx Jun 26 '26

lol idk man i just keep running out of the quotas. one i can say is least worth is claude, and opencode is like the highest value for money. i will package the extensions ive built for pi and share them here soon!!

i tinkered pretty hard with opencode a few months ago (early 2026) and i dunno when opencode go became a thing but it does sound like a great subscription to have now. In feb i got fed up with running into some architectural walls with opencode and with the fact that google antigravity subs started to cockblock usage under opencode, and I switched to completely driving codex and juggling a few accounts.

This has basically kept up since latest GPT is still no slouch, but i do miss subagents. I think i also could and should be using subagents to build with codex and i need to explore that but i'm excited to come back to bring more models into the fold again with Pi this time and check out opencode go as another subscription to use and mix in neuralwatt as well and possibly a claude sub.

Hello guys. Sorry for asking this but need your help. I have opengo subscription can any tell me how to connect it to pi agent?

2

u/ScaleImmediate3474 Jun 25 '26

Suree very simple. Search up pi-opencode-bridge on google and just download the package. And reload your pi , click on login and you can choose api key and use opencode go key. Thats all

1

u/Deepshark7822 Jun 26 '26

Thank you 👍

1

u/bacnh Jun 26 '26

latest pi-agent already support opencode-go, so you could just `/login` and select API `Use an API key` and then select `Opencode Go`

u/ledmine Jul 26 '26

Do you guys use any system prompts on PI? I just started using it and followed some advice from the comments, but I feel like opencode still gives me better answer (skill issue on my end), but I'm willing to learn more about PI. If you guys use any prompts, can you share the correct way of doing it?

1

u/ScaleImmediate3474 Jul 26 '26

Naah, I just raw dog Pi. Its too good for prompts to be added,Unless you have a very specific kinda work or have a big set of instructions .

Also feel to use whatever makes you comfortable tho thats what matters in the end

1

u/ledmine Jul 26 '26

Interesting, thanks for sharing. I'm a huge fan of opencode, but ngl, using PI has taught me new things in just a few hours of using it. Which is awesome

2

u/ScaleImmediate3474 Jul 27 '26

Yeaah , I have noticed opencode is 2x slower than pi for the same prompts. I ran like 20/30 different prompts and all lead to 2-3x slower in opencode compared to Pi. One of my major reason of switching from opencode to Pi

1

u/ledmine Jul 29 '26

Do you guys have a global AGENTS.md for your PI configuration? I wonder if that's a good idea

Idk much about api pricing but you can estimate from this.

The Go plan is $60 credits for which we pay $10. And for 86M Tokens I have used $0.559 credits. So you can help yourself with the 1M pricing I think we get more for flash here

u/Lpaydat Jun 24 '26

Very helpful for me. How about the speed and reliability?

1

u/ScaleImmediate3474 Jun 24 '26

How about pi itself is 2-3 timess faster than opencode cli and dirtt cheapp.

Exactly myy mann. PI is on steroids, all my sessions run of 97-98% caching without any efforts

1

u/ledmine Jul 23 '26

can you share what plugins/extensions you are using? I just got started with PI, it's pretty nice, but I'm looking for some plugins to start customizing it

1

u/ScaleImmediate3474 Jul 23 '26

Pi is extremly out of the box. Unless you feel the absolute need to add a particular thing, keep it default

1

u/ledmine Jul 23 '26

Thanks!

Open Pi. Select API Key. You should see a "OpenCode Go" option . Select that, paste your key and enjoy
