There is zero cost to switching ai models. Paid or open source. It's one line mostly.

- gonzalohm 6mo agoWhat about your chat history? That has some value, at least for me. But what has even more value is stable releases.
- drewnick 6mo agoI think this is more about which model you steer your coding harness to. You can also self-host a UI in front of multiple models, then you own the chat history.
- sergiotapia 6mo agofor me there is zero value there.
- srmatto 6mo agoYou can output it as a memory using a simple prompt. You could probably re-use this prompt for any product with only slight modification. Or you could prompt the product to output an import prompt that is more tuned to its requirements. e.g. https://claude.com/import-memory https://claude.com/import-memory
- simplyluke 6mo agoThis is one of the many reasons I don't think the model companies are going to win the application space in coding. There's literally zero context lost for me in switching between model providers as a cursor user at work. For personal stuff I'll use an open source harness for the same reason.
- distances 6mo agoI don't see any value in chat history. I delete all conversations at least weekly, it feels like baggage.
- charcircuit 6mo agoCodex doesn't read Claude.md like Claude does. It's not a "one line" change to switch.
- fritzo 6mo agoln -s CLAUDE.md AGENTS.md There's your one line change.
- charcircuit 6mo agoThat doesn't handle Claude.md in subdirectories. It does handle Claude.md and other various settings in .claude.
- aklein 6mo agoI have a CLAUDE.md symlinked to AGENTS.md
- troupo 6mo agoYou mean Anthropic are the only ones refusing the de-facto standard despite a long-standing issue: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/6235 https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/6235 And as others have said, it's a one-line fix. "Skills" etc. are another `ln -s`
