Such a useful walkthrough. It looks like Mitchell is using an agentic framework called Amp (I’d never heard of it) - does anybody else here use it or tried it?

- simonw 1y agoI haven't yet spent any time with it myself, but the impression I have been getting is that it is the most credible of the vendor-independent terminal coding agents right now. Claude Code, Codex CLI and Gemini CLI are all (loosely) locked to their own models.
- piazz 1y agoThis is good to know. I’ll probably play around with it sometime in the future. BTW, appreciate your many great write-ups - they’ve been invaluable for keeping up to date in this space.
- qudat 1y agoAs far as I know it only uses sonnet 4.5
- simonw 1y agoIt's currently Sonnet 4.5 by default but uses GPT-5 for the "oracle" second opinion, according to https://ampcode.com/manual#oracle https://ampcode.com/manual#oracle
- qudat 1y agoI’m using it. It’s expensive but it’s awesome
- valcker 1y agoHow is it compared to Claude Code?
- d4rkp4ttern 1y agoReason to stick with Claude Code or Codex CLI is that they use the respective platforms’ subscriptions, like Claude Max or ChatGPT-Pro. Unless I’m mistaken, with the other cli apps like Amp you get charged by token usage which can add up to a lot more than the $200/mo that Claude Max 20x or ChatGPT Pro cost.
