I'd like to give these a try - what's your way of using them? I mostly use Claude because of Claude Code. Not sure what agentic coding tools people are using these days with OSS models. I'm not a big fan of manually uploading files into a web UI.
If you don't have the hardware to run it locally, let me shill my own company for a minute: Synthetic [1] has a $20/month subscription to most of the good open-weight coding LLMs, with higher rate limits than Claude's $20/month sub. And our $60/month sub has higher rate limits than the $200/month maxed-out version of the Claude Max plan.
You can still use Claude Code by using LiteLLM or similar tools that convert Anthropic-style API requests to OpenAI-style API requests; once you have one of those running locally, you override the ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL env var to point to your locally-running proxy. We'll also be shipping an Anthropic-compatible API this week to work with Claude Code directly. Some other good agentic tools you could use instead include Cline, Roo Code, KiloCode, OpenCode, or Octofriend (the last of which we maintain).
If you can find a way to secure the requests even during the 14 day period, or anonymize them while allowing the developers to do their job, you can have my money today. I think privacy/data security is the #1 concern for me, especially if the agents will be supporting me in all kinds of personal tasks.
This looks really promising since I have also been having all sorts of issues with Claude.
In terms of tenancy: we have our own dedicated VMs for our Kubernetes cluster via Azure, although I suspect a VM is not equivalent to an entire hardware node. We use Supabase for our Postgres DB, and Redis for ephemeral data; while we don't share access to that to any other company, we don't create a new DB for every user of our service, so there is user multitenancy there. Similarly, the same GPUs may serve many customers — otherwise we'd need to charge enormous amounts for inference. But, the requests themselves aren't intermingled; i.e. if you make a request, it doesn't affect someone else's.
