Takeaways from "You've been using AI the hard way"

  • It's likely going to be better long-term to leverage CLIs as opposed to VS Code forks (i.e., Cursor IDE), web frontends (i.e., Claude), and even desktop apps like Copilot.
  • Some good tooling practices are going to become standards that should be applied, but since they're time-consuming they'll probably be left to the wayside:
    • Subagents for encapsulating certain tasks; running and validating builds, generating module templates, checking resources
    • Having agents document their "thoughts" and results to files to save context
  • OpenCode might be the CLI that survives the test of time and industry because you can bring any LLM to it, including local LLMs
