deepseek v4.1 flash just landed in cursor. max effort hits 47.7% on cursorbench for under a dollar a task, opus 5.5 tops out around 57%. most tickets aren't 57% tickets. what share of your agent runs actually need the top model?

@cursor_ai1h
DeepSeek V4.1 Flash is now available in Cursor! Every effort level sits on the CursorBench cost frontier: from $0.60 to $0.98 per task, no model scores higher. Turn it on in Cursor Settings > Models.

Personal bench, muse wonder on max destroyed terra on max, speed, price, and outcome.

The paper weight has decided to show its face. No one cares about Terra

GPT-6.1 Terra: delivering fast and capable computer use at a lower price. GPT-6.1 Terra understands what’s on screen, takes action across apps, writes naturally, and is a more capable model for your whole workday with the efficiency to take on more of it.

asked builders what their first coding agent harness was missing. the top answer was the same thing, it doesn't know when to stop. the fix in 3 lines 1. hard cap on steps and tokens per run 2. cap tool output so one grep can't eat the context 3. a done check it has to pass, like tests green, before it says finished loop and tools are easy. stopping is the hard part

how to build your first coding agent harness. wavestone pulled apart 11 agents, claude code and codex included, and found the same building blocks. steal these

cheap local model for grunt work, frontier model for the hard calls. you hit limits way less

Well, I was wrong. @theo t3code is actually an amazing product(coming from a terminal junkie). Now im on claude code desktop and probably t3code. How fast opinions change. Oh and cant forget @AmpCode
