Seven AI Coding CLIs, Six Months: No Matter How Strong the Model, Work Needs Supervision
Claude Code, Codex, opencode, pi, omp and DeepSeek Harness all have personalities. After six months of deep use I run a division of labor: pi for the fastest cheapest reviews, omp for complex PRs, DeepSeek Harness on V4 Flash for high-frequency low-cost review, and Claude Code, Qoder and Cursor for writing. No matter how strong the model, work needs supervision — ideally from an independent third party.
