My personal LLM coding stack is now OpenCode, Claude Sonnet for ideation on spec with OpenWhispr for voice-to-text, GLM-5.1 for the orchestrating loop, GLM-4.7 for coding, and DeepSeek R1 for review and validation. It works much, much better than the Claude Code setup I have at work for substantially less money to boot.

At this rate I fully anticipate being able to run a comparable stack on a 128GB Mac Studio using quants of newer-generation distilled OSS models in a year or two. Being able to ramble to a computer for an hour about features and technical philosophy then have it build a nearly-working app for $50 is an exciting feeling. There's still a long tail of productionization and fixing what the model didn't adhere to but it's still incredible.
