I wonder which agents local model users rely on most for their local/open models. This ranking maps pretty closely to my own journey with local agents: I started with Claude Code, then used Codex heavily, and now I have almost settled on Pi agent. I also use qwen-code but it is https://t.co/ULtsfNgELc
