Developer Ian Nuttall breaks down his "perfect coding stack" at $420/month: $200 for ChatGPT (running 6.1 Sol), $200 for Claude (Opus/Sonnet 5.5), and $20 for AmpCode (Orbs plus extra usage). He argues you don't need "10x subscriptions" or account switchers — this combination is enough to ship anything he needs.
