Coding Agent Options and Use Cases | Generated by AI
Based on the coding-agent skill, I have a few available:
- Claude Code — my go-to for most tasks (Anthropic’s CLI, no PTY needed, just
--print --permission-mode bypassPermissions) - Codex — OpenAI’s CLI, good but needs
pty:true - OpenCode / Pi — alternatives, also need PTY
For most coding work, I’d use Claude Code — it’s the most straightforward since it doesn’t need a PTY. For quick edits or reading code, I just use my built-in tools directly (edit, read, exec). I only delegate to an agent when something needs real file exploration, refactoring across many files, or building something new from scratch.
