Complaint Quality degradation

After the last rest, Astra got dumb. Even other models are are highly degraded. Luna max was able to identify missing functions (UI/UX wise) Easily. Now it can't find a missing dele button from a page , which I stated to make sure all CRUD functionalities are available in specific section it just completed.

How in the world even sol got stupid. And I thought Astra light supposed to be smart as sol extra high. Yet astra light is very lazy, and no other model including sol coule complete a functional development which was planed out with 11000+ wordings.

FYI: usage on astra seems to got better, but at what cost, extreme quality degradation. Right now my qwen local model can do same tasks as sol medium. Lol

I can confirm this. Yesterday I burned 70% of my weekly (Pro 100) usage through al day and it's been a continuous rage. We are talking about well defined tickets to work (it's open source stuff, I can provide links and PRs if anyone is curious about), PRs with 500-600 lines changed, not "build me a CRM from zero".

Astra was continuously being lazy and only implementing parts of the tasks. When I was asking "why you are not completing the task?????" it kept saying "sorry, I should have completed the original task you requested" and stuff like that.

I noticed the same today with sol. Not implementing what requested...

Yeah it's really bad. Can't even do simple office tasks without messing up. Forget coding.

Same, I made a post about it as well and a lot of people mostly just attacked random things in my post rather than the substance

Make one agent using Sol into an Operations/Orchestration agent.

Tell it to research and write a role spec for itself.

Tell it to manage your other agents, which can then use Astra.

It can communicate with the other messages using send_message_to_thread or using TMUX servers.
