TL;DR: Yes, the title is clickbait. The answer is no, it’s not worth it. Keep using Claude Code with Opus 4.6 or 4.7. Details below. A few weeks ago I wrote a detailed LLM coding benchmark comparing 33 open source and commercial models on the same test: build a Rails app using RubyLLM. The conclusion was that only 4 models generated code that works on first try (both Claudes, GLM 5, and GLM 5.1), and that for anyone who doesn’t want to waste time fixing API hallucinations, Claude Opus via Claude Code remains the most rational choice despite the price. This article is a follow-up. I’ll keep that benchmark updated as new models come out (Opus 4.7, Qwen 3.6, GPT 5.4 via Codex are already in). This one tackles a different question that shows up in my feed every week: what if I combine two models in the same project? Opus to plan, GLM to execute. Does that work?
