| The power of Opus isn't just the model, it's in the harness too. You can try it by using Opus through Github Copilot vs official Anthropic tools. You'll get very different results and experience (in my opinion). |

| I’ve only used Opus in GitHub copilot and was hugely underwhelmed. It was barely usable. Are you saying it’s better with the official Anthropic tools? |

| ▲ | m-ee 4 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | I don't know about better but it's certainly different. It's painfully slow through claude code vscode extension compared to copilot but maybe "smarter", I feel like I have to correct it less using sonnet on both. I don't use opus much because of the cost but coworkers say the difference between harnesses there is also pronounced. |

| open source harnesses are also improving rapidly. Some people would claim they are already far better than CC and Codex. |
