Those of you doing agent-assisted coding, what is your current daily driver? Cursor? Claude Code? Codex? Something else? (Responses to the effect of "I don't" or "I hate AI" will be ignored)

claude code as tech lead with gemini swarms in worktrees or in-dir

Fascinating! I wouldn't have expected those to play well together.

There's some nontrivial orchestration code but I basically have an MCP tool/layer that handles that (mostly ready to publish, stuck in that long tail of ergonomics work/bugfixes).

You can replicate the basic idea by asking Claude to manually create worktrees and seed them with TASK.md.tmp files. Then manually spawning gemini's (with 3 pro, 2 is... bad) in those worktrees and tell them to read their task file, complete the task, and file a PR

Why not get Claude to do the whole thing, or gemini to do the whole thing? What's the advantage of mixing them? They're better at different stuff?

Token arbitrage. I don't want to waste Opus tokens if I don't need to, and Gemini is way more permissive rn. Also, my theory is that multiple model families in collaboration are better, b/c they have different blind spots/biases. Eg I have Gemini iterate on PRs with copilot before showing Claude

And I usually have to do the inverse because Gemini is great at planning and reasoning, but Clause just works better as a collaborator in Copilot.
