People have been sleeping on Gemini lately but these last few Flash releases (which were very rapid) are damn good.

These sort of fast and cheap models are great for tasks that are verifiable and can be retried infinitely (like coding), you can basically get frontier results with a good harness (at a fraction of the time and money).

As someone who has stubbornly stuck with Claude Code, what's a good harness for Gemini models?

▲

You can use any model with Claude Code. Most chinese one have a Anthropic compatible endpoint and for Google and OpenAI's models you can get a compatible endpoint with a proxy like Bifrost. No need to change your harness.

Pi [1] is amazing. Since using it I've felt no need to switch harnesses anymore.

Or choose Oh My PI [2] for batteries included

Can you use Pi with a Google Pro AI sub or do you need to use API billing?

▲

Using API billing would be a bummer because, as far as I know, there's no way to set up a spend cap or pre-pay the API key, correct?

		They finally allowed for a hard spend cap that's easy to set a few weeks ago: https://aistudio.google.com/spend

I highly recommend just getting out of Anthropic's (or anyone's) vendor lock-in. Use opencode or pi. You can still use your subscription pricing using a proxy. I switched to opencode and haven't looked back.

How do you do the proxy thing?

Meridian[0] for Claude Code, CLIProxyAPI[1] for everything else

I use OpenCode with my ChatGPT subscription, which is officially supported on both sides and a damn good deal (OpenCode Go is great too).

OpenCode has “providers” for many (many!) other services, but these are almost all unofficial and against ToS (Anthropic being famous for ban-hammering people).

		But proxying via Claude CLI is OK? Or also not?

Antigravity is probably the best of the bunch I've tried. I'd say it's pretty comparable to Claude Code (I use both daily).

Just like Claude Code and others it has the same —-dangerously-skip-permissions flag, auto approves everything

▲

Antigravity which lacks an auto approve mode? Not really comparable to Claude Code when you're looking to run a team of agents from my experience.

	▲	drusepth 2 hours ago \| parent \| next [-]
		I've curated my auto-approve list to specific commands by approving them with "always allow in this project" (I never want it e.g. committing/pushing to GitHub, removing files, etc without being in the loop) but Antigravity does have both a standard "auto-approve" mode _and_ a "Turbo mode" which disables ALL approvals of all kinds.

		They have an auto approve mode. At least in the vs code plugin.

Antigravity has been also rapidly improving lately, and your can also use any of the open coding harnesses. But I mostly meant “harness” as in your workflow/loop setup.

Is that possible? What subscription would that be? 'Google AI Plus'?

▲

Do they officially support you using your subscription in other harnesses?

▲

watusername 5 hours ago | parent [-]

No, and Google actively bans people for using their subscription from other harnesses via various proxies/gateways.

To preempt certain replies, yes, I know you can pay API prices and use whatever harness you want.

	▲	_aavaa_ 5 hours ago \| parent [-]
		Shame. Thanks for the info.

Is antigravity still heavily rate limited?
