For very long i was using claude-code, i will not go dipper into how bad this is and how much i wasted my time on it but in search for better coding harness i came accorss one video on youtube - it was maximilianzuern talking about special kind of coding harness called PI - minimal with very very limited sets of tools. I saw that video and decided to give it a try - it was good and interesting but it was same as other following same principal and design. Yes i have gone through source code. 

**My concern :-** 

Why coding agents has to support terminal by default, we spent out life working in browser , it is optimised for good data presentation - be it graph , beautiful card and so on. Why try to limit display and presentation capabilities of LLM to terminal only. Why not directly go with browser where human will interact with coding harness ? 

  
Same agent loop design and context management , why sends all session history per turn as context each query - this is what it is and being followed by all harness out there be it claude code , opencode , PI or others, same story. Agree it or not but this burn tokens like water , choking LLM context , reaching limit too quickly and hours of wait time in case of claude-code. 

Why treat plan mode as secondary features , agree or not but we all know how we are using this harness in real worlds , we ask it build one feature ( sometime more than one ) -  and it blindly start working on the project ( yes it will ask you needed question to better understand your intent & you can also ask to plan it first ), and in few hours it will generate massive thousands lines of change and eventually you will have massive PRs to review - if you are working with critical software ( banking , finance and security ) - you cannot skip this PRs review - but PRs with thousand of lines of code , man nobody is going to review it no matter how skills they are. 

Slow linear progression on feature , like seriously why ? Why we are waiting for hours setting infront of claude-code waiting just to click ENTER ( we know this feeling - setting scroll reels waiting to press ENTER )?? 

We are doing this because , either we are not sure what files claude will touch and will do waht modification to achive your feature requested or you are not reading plan carefully. 

**My efforts so far**

Well i will not go deep ranting about coding harness of current days. Let me give you some context on what i was building for months , i named it ogcode - it is MIT licensed and free to use and distribute. ( Many people will assume i am here to prompt but believe me i am those stage where i  don't care about money ) just to build something that will be valuable to community out there. 

  
Whatever i told you above , all drawbacks ogocde is solving smoothly. Since you can see video and understand most of it and also go through source code and readme to better undertand it i will not talk deeply about ogocde as this post will get longer.  I will just highlight one feature of ogocde - it is Agentic session memory , this one feature if get activated can save you almost 70% of tokens on longer conversation - because in short it is not sending full conversation history ( including tools call data ) to LLM to resolve user's given query instead it only sends relevant context that is needed to achieve user request. Believe me this is hard to implement correctly but ogcode has it and will improve in upcomg days. You can join my journey if you finds this invovative and valuable. More than happy to let you in. 

Pasting my github repo link in here  [https://github.com/prasenjeet-symon/ogcode](https://github.com/prasenjeet-symon/ogcode) Once you will go through readme you will get deeper sence of what i am trying to do. 



I hated claude-code so much i decided to build my own but with twist
