My main gripe is that it is solely tied to expensive anthropic models. They were the only SOTA model for coding for awhile but not anymore.

My c# AI dev setup is now VSCode + #Cline + #Requesty + (Gem 2.5 Pro || Sonnet || Deepseek) + Supermaven.

BUT...I do love the CLI DX Claude code has cooking

Cline - Autonomous Coding Agent for VSCode Cline is an AI-powered coding assistant for Visual Studio Code.

VSCode + #cline backed by [Deepseek R1 | Sonnet 3.5 | Gemini Flash 2.0] + #Supermaven

All tools 💯 free. I only pay for AI API.

Providers: #anthropic, #openrouter, #deepseek, #requesty
