Personally for me it's Deepseek, he's very smart in coding and always helps me with various tasks and sometimes gives me brilliant ideas.

I dont particularly care for the cloud options: If I were to rank. Gemini 2.5 pro > claude 3.5 sonnet > o3. I look forward to testing gpt5.

Devstral is still #1 for me. Easily 80k context, high accuracy setup. Matched with openhand's context management it works so well.

GPT-OSS-20b definitely the best quality coder I have but this harmony stuff and it fails to call tools often and it's almost always due to <|channel>. Often it catches itself, then continues, but then your context melts. For whatever reason as well, 31,000 context is max i can load? If I put it through my pygame test, it 1shots basically every time.

Qwen3 coder 30b in qwen code would fail at tool calls like 90% of the time. Testing out the unsloth version with 60k context, it still has 2gb of vram free. Tons of speed; but it's making bonehead moves.

I approved it to remove a perfectly good print statement. It's only ruining their own score.

line 99 Game stopped by user. ^^^^^^^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I gave it this syntax error. It has now edited the file and duplicated the code, placing the full game under the except. There's now 2x everything; and the 2nd instance is at the wrong indentation.

    import time

IndentationError: expected an indented block after 'except' statement on line 98

│ Error: No changes to apply. The old_string and new_string are identical. │

I see the issue now. The file has been corrupted with duplicate content and incorrect structure. Let me rewrite it properly:

lol... only yourself to blame. It has finally gotten a working game. Though still not a complete solution.

Finally we have a complete solution.
