I've been using Augment's agents (VS code, CLI) for 8ish months. It let's me easily switch between GPT and Claude models.

I've found the best results from letting GPT 5.4 code and then asking Opus to do code reviews to a file. I do the review in a different agent session so it's "fresh". Then I review the file, edit until I agree with everything, and let the existing GPT agent session address the items in the review file. I've found Clause agents don't perform as well for me in coding for whatever reason. They feel more sloppy.

I've also been doing a very organic spec-driven development process where I have a md file for each non-trivial project update and use that to define the task and address questions or problems the agent has.

I've also found I can give agents conditional instructions which they will usually use like skills. This gives me a way to easily distribute my instructions to any agent/model on any machine with a single AGENTS.md as the entry point:

This has all been very effective, more than I would have predicted a year ago.
