Don’t get me wrong, but 7K LoCs means it is still an early attempt to make a coding agent. It starts easy “ah it can edit and read files!”, but it requires a lot of extra effort to make properly for many edge cases, especially caching, price optimizations, etc.

I’ve been implementing custom coding agent in https://playcode.io for 3 years already. Far beyond of 7K LoCs.

So when you compare to “shitty slow” Claude code - I don’t agree.

Check what tools we already implemented, check your "slow" accusation, check the prompt system, check the provider integration (via Rig, so caching is already enabled), check the MCP support and other integrations that you don't even find on some major agents (git worktrees + loops).

For 3 years, your Lovable clone is something that Claude Code could make in a couple of days, but good luck shitting on other project I guess.
