Recently we built OTelBench – a benchmark to test how well LLMs handle OpenTelemetry instrumentation.
We tested 14 models. The best (Claude Opus 4.5) hit only 29%.
These weren't trick questions, just small subset of typical SRE tasks.

We brought @QuesmaOrg software to Silicon Valley on floppy disks; each could hold 370k tokens. Very positive reactions at AGNTCon 2025.

How to maximize the value of agentic coding? Use insights from session transcripts.

AGNTCon is tomorrow, right after PyTorch. @QuesmaOrg is a sponsor and has a booth.

For the first time, we got over 2048 visitors in the last 30 minutes on the @QuesmaOrg blog, thanks to a Hacker News home run by @pmigdal . You should read it; it's beautiful. 🧵

This morning, Claude Code burnt 113M tokens with 202 subagents for my research (Opus 5.5). It would cost $72 at list price, though I ran it on a Max x20 subscription.
I simulated optimizations with @QuesmaOrg : grouping agents would make it worse (up to +83%). Leaner prompts, smaller tool outputs, and fewer redundant checks would cut it 30-50% on the same model. Even more with a cheaper one.

In 2011, shipping a demo overnight was impressive.
In 2026, vibe coding makes that cheap.
So we gave students 18 GB of coding-agent transcripts and one Friday evening to find where we burn tokens.

GPT-6 Astra rocks at puzzles - 3d game Portal, Baba Is You, ARC-AGI-3, MazeBench.
Is there a puzzle game still to hard to for this model?
Or maybe all that remains is unsolved historical codes?

Are terminal compression tools actually saving us money?
Together with @jakozaur we tested one of the most popular ones across 1,740 Terminal-Bench 2.1 runs.
Huge reported token savings.
Almost no improvement in the final bill.
Token compression ≠ cost optimization.

Quesma benchmarked RTK (Rust Token Killer), and our post landed on the Hacker News homepage. Up to second place:

With new models and record-high results on benchmarks, do LLMs know it all?
Not really, if you dare to go outside established norms. As @pmigdal showed in the latest @QuesmaOrg post on Hacker News. The LLM still could not reliably tell which mushrooms are edible vs. fatal.

Thanks, @pmigdal and @bartkotrys, for your feedback.

gemini 3.6 flash cleared 88% of the baba is you intro levels and spent $124 doing it
gemini 3.7 flash cleared 100% and spent only $5.38
and boy, is she fast! 😍⚡️ @QuesmaOrg

Quantization is better than a lot of ppl think, see @pmigdal at @QuesmaOrg blogs such as:

Same tokens, same model, up to a 40x price gap. Priced my own Claude Code usage at API list rates:
- Max 5x ($100/mo): $2,092 (21x)
- Max 20x ($200/mo): $2,986 (15x)

Some said if you don't like Fable pricing, you can use subagents with cheaper models. At @QuesmaOrg @bartkotrys tried it and benchmarked against Terminal-Bench, and it backfired in four ways:

Can LLM quantizations harm the pelican?
I tested all @UnslothAI's quantizations of Qwen 3.6 27B to see if they can draw @simonw's SVG pelican riding a bike.

Things I shipped last weekend:
1. Offsite @QuesmaOrg presentations and photos, hosted on our own site behind SSO. Live the day after the event.
2. Animated visualizations for FlexDrill, because the founder asked.

Yesterday, Frontier-Bench landed 0.1 with tasks from @pmigdal and @QuesmaOrg . Today, Opus 5 was released, and it was put in the spotlight.

Retro today during @QuesmaOrg offsite. Time for token economy.
