I just started using it on an m4 max 128 and it's the first time since buying the machine a year ago that it feels like local llm "just works" for reasonably decent coding.

Use pi though; claude code has way too much bootstrap context; slows everything way down.

Definitely seconding pi. Also avoid opencode, it doesn't support caching (mutates the system prompt constantly)
