Yup, it's fantastically useful.

Maybe even more useful than Opus when I have all the constraints to an issue. There is less "knowledge" in the model (I get by with 48GB of RAM allocated to an 8b quant), so it has fewer things to hallucinate about.

I've been getting to know its limits pretty well over the last few weeks and would say it's an excellent code search/replacement/generation* engine.

It's got the "in-context script generation" flow down as well, so it will easily help automate tasks that you describe with text and perhaps example commands, or tools, or skills* that you provide.

*Think of it + Pi as an NLP abstraction layer over grep, or a shell, rather than a jack of all trades + world knowledge all-in-one.
