3.8 Next Flash seems like it is the first model usable unattended coding on a single desktop PC. The context window issue I think is a non-issue, at least to the extent that I already run Opus and Fable with auto-compact at 200k tokens. Even though theoretically those models support longer context I've never seen them perform as well at long lengths and the cached read cost starts to get really out of hand.
- cyanydeez 12d agothis is what I use: https://github.com/Opencode-DCP/opencode-dynamic-context-pruning https://github.com/Opencode-DCP/opencode-dynamic-context-pru... ; this and openviking appear to be all I need to get a proper 'do anything' setup.
- hedgehog 12d agoThanks, I hadn't seen OpenViking before. I do everything in Claude Code right now due to the cost advantage but between the advances in local models (especially Qwen family) and models like Gemini 3.8 Flash it may be worth revisiting.
