<p>Yee I gotcha.<p>Did a migration myself last week from using playwright mcp towards playwright-cli instead. Which has been playing much nicer so far. I guess you would run into the same issues you've already mentioned about running chrome headless in one of these sandboxes.<p>I'll for sure keep an eye out for updates.<p>Kudos to the project!</p>

<p>I really don't have any numbers to back this up. But it feels like the sweet spot is around ~500k context size. Anything larger then that, you usually have scoping issues, trying to do too much at the same time, or having having issues with the quality of what's in the context at all.<p>For me, I would say speed (not just time to first token, but a complete generation) is more important then going for a larger context size.</p>

<p>Very nice!<p>I've been experimenting with a similar setup.

<p>From my point of view, you're either choosing between instruction following or more creative solutions.<p>Codex models tend to be extremely good at following instructions, to the point that it won't do any additional work unless you ask it to. GPT-5.1 and GPT-5.2 on the other hand is a little bit more creative.<p>Models from Anthropics on the other hand is a lot more loosy goosy on the instructions, and you need to keep an eye on it much more often.<p>I'm using models interchangeably from both providers all the time depending on the task at hand. No real preference if one is better then the other, they're just specialized on different things</p>

<p>> The last thing I'll mention is that Claude Code (Sonnet 4.5) is still very token-happy, in that it eagerly goes above and beyond when not always necessary. Codex (gpt-5-codex) on the other hand, does exactly what you ask, almost to a fault.<p>I very much share your experience. As for the time being I like the experience with codex over claude, just because I find my self in a position where I know much sooner when to step in and just doing it manually.<p>With claude I find my self in a typing exercise much more often, I could probably get better of knowing when to stop ofc.</p>

<p>I can't tell if this is satire or not. And some parts read like it was written by AI.<p>Either way, a more fine grained control over the GC is probably preferred over something like this.</p>

<p>I'm always so confused by those statements as well. Because just like you, I feel that the 20B version is really good at following instructions.<p>Some of the qwen models are too, but they seem to need a bit more handholding.<p>This is of course just anecdotal from my end. And I've been slacking on keeping up with evals while testing at home</p>

<p>And by GPT-5 you mean through their API? Directly through Azure OpenAI services? or are you talking about ChatGPT set to using GPT-5.<p>All of these alternatives means different things when you say it takes +20 seconds for a full response.</p>

<p>I fundamentally agree with you.<p>But anti-cheat hasn't been about blocking every possible way of cheating for some time now. It's been about making it as in convenient as possible, thus reducing the amount of cheaters.<p>Is the current fad of using kernel level anti-cheats what we want? hell nah.<p>The responsibility of keeping a multi-player session clean of cheaters, was previously shared between the developers and server owners. While today this responsibility has fallen mostly on developers (or rather game studios) since they want to own the whole experience.</p>

<p>Been using a similar setup, with so far pretty decent results. With the addition of having a short explanation for each file within index.md<p>I've been experimenting with having a rules.md file within each directory where I want a certain behavior. Example, let us say I have a directory with different kind of services like realtime-service.ts and queue-service.ts, I then have a rules.md file on the same level as they are.<p>This lets me scaffold things pretty fast when prompting by just referencing that file. The name is probably not the best tho.</p>
