Great article! I use LLMs 99.9% in the chat box, to bounce ideas around, ask research and reference questions, and so forth. However, I have sworn off 'agents' entirely for serious code, for reasons your article captures almost totally and perfectly.

I'll still use 'agents' for throwaway tasks--mostly with local models--including tasks where some sort of ad-hoc code generation is in the critical path (e.g. scraping data).
