   I've been working with agents all year, but 5.6 Sol was some sort of sweet spot for me. Something about how it communicated verbally and its engineering instincts just clicked for me, and I was able to somehow predict it and jam with it. Like a colleague you click with. It's the first model I've gotten attached to. I'm concerned that whatever model supercedes it, while technically better, just won't feel quite as natural to work with. And this makes me feel very professionally vulnerable to the labs. I miss the days when my crucial tooling came from companies as reliable and predictable as, say, Jetbrains.

      Same. In fact I found 6 Astra to be a downgrade in situations where I didn't need the extra intelligence.

         Yeah, I use Astra for destroying vaguely scoped asks and tasks, and then for high-level design and plan generations..

         Otherwise I'm using 5.6 Sol for actual plan execution and review..
