Skills across coding assistants

I love Claude Code, but I use it so much that I regularly exhaust my weekly quota before the week ends. When that happens, I usually switch to other free-tier CLIs, e.g., Google Antigravity, GitHub Copilot, and, just last week, Mistral’s Vibe.

Goodbye Claude, Hello Pi

A longtime Claude Code user is switching to the open source harness Pi after accumulating frustrations. Claude Code only lets one session connect to the IDE at a time, a bug reported since December 2025 and closed as a duplicate. The author counts 244 Claude Code releases this year, with over three-quarters changing the system prompt or tool descriptions. Despite trimming 80% of the system prompt, the default Bash tool description still runs almost 3,000 tokens. The author calls Claude Code a product without strong direction and says Pi has been smooth sailing since the first few days.
