Luna is good as an end user model for simple tasks like classification, but not as a coding model. Also do you mean Gemini 3.6 Flash? 4 doesn't exist, and Gemma 4 exists but doesn't have a Flash option.

Yeah, been running too many evals in the past week I start to mix the versions up. Probably should sleep...

We run an agent company and outside coding the new Gemini 3.6 Flash and GPT 5.6 Luna are very interesting. Luna can do a bit of research and create reports. Gemini is great for computer use.

For programming it's all Kimi K3 now.

Not my experience at all. I've been driving Luna xhigh in CoPilot CLI since it was released as my daily driver. Good reasoning, no problems with tool calls.
Not sure what you're working on as for coding it's still pretty bad at least for more complex projects compared to Opus.
