<p>Fable is still the best there is. Sol close second but I find it gets way to stuck on details.<p>Also Opus 5 is fine if your codebase is simple.</p>

<p>> The bug is a data race with tight timing constraints. It is unlikely to occur in common use. The developers have never been able to reproduce the bug organically and had to add special testing logic to SQLite that deliberately triggers the circumstances of the the bug in order to verify that the issue has been fixed.<p>I read that and it feels like some theoretical thing versus causing impactful outages for workloads shaped like tailscale’s.</p>

<p>While technically true as written, it seems to downplay the significance:<p>> The bug is a data race with tight timing constraints. It is unlikely to occur in common use.<p>A large customer did experience this corruption, so it's important for people with tailscale's setup update immediately.<p>> The developers have never been able to reproduce the bug organically and had to add special testing logic to SQLite that deliberately triggers the circumstances of the the bug in order to verify that the issue has been fixed.</p>

<p>One honesty note before my comment (yuck), it's super frustrating to read an LLM produced blog that could be 1/3 the size. Why are you talking about MCP's when comparing OpenCode and Claude Code when they both support that technology?<p>The only interesting thing is whether OpenCode is more effective at writing code with it's reduced system prompt.</p>

<p>Caching doesn’t work the way the bug reporter implies. Caches are shared (at least across the enterprise), but its key is always a function of the input before it.<p>We achieved significant savings simply by moving everything that varies across individuals out of the system prompt so every session starts from a cache point.<p>For example you never want your system prompt to start with the time that the session started. Move that to the first user message if needed.</p>

<p>Not true at all. I hate reading my own produced AI writing.<p>The issue with any AI writing is that it all sounds the same.<p>Once that stops being true, maybe it will be acceptable. But until then, you are left with repetitive crap. That you must wade through. Not good.</p>
