Given how quickly things evolve, it's easy to get lost in the numerous offerings and hard to get the best deal. So, what do you use? Both clients/harnesses and LLM providers or local setups would be interesting.

Personally, I've been using opencode with Github copilot for work. I'm currently looking for cost-effective provider for personal work. Maybe openrouter with one of the cheap models?

Opencode Go and Zen are both much cheaper than anything from anthropic or openai. So much so that even paying per token can be cheaper than Anthropic's subscription. Deepseek models specifically are 10x cheaper and almost as good as what you get with anthropic sonnet.
