@thijs with small models like Qwen 3.5 4B based ones, I find pi coding agent working great. But you have to size well your context.

@panmaster I will give it a try, thanks!

@panmaster it is nice but because the name has been in popular use by Raspberry Pi for so long it is really hard to find good info for it, a really poor decision on the name if you ask me

@thijs and he knows it, I read that somewhere but can’t find the article. The site to avoid any ambiguity: https://shittycodingagent.ai/
This morning I tried with Gemma 4 E2B: faster but I need to use it more to conclude anything.

@panmaster I just tried Gemma4 but I got a ton of errors on tool handling, maybe a LM Studio issue then

@thijs in fact I have a problem with edits and llama.cpp can fail with some content. It’s not ready yet for tool usage. Back to Qwen 3.5
