Seeking the Best Local AI Harness for Coding and General Agents
zyxciss · reddit · 2026-08-22
User seeks recommendations for the best local AI harness to run Qwen 3.6 35B-A3B and Qwen 3.8 27B for both coding and general-purpose agent tasks. Current options like Pi, Hermes TUI, and OpenCode often hinder model capabilities due to poor tool calling or system prompt setup. The post asks for specific setups regarding harness, inference backend (e.g., llama.cpp), and essential MCPs/tools, specifically from those running 27B–35B Qwen models locally.
