What is the best coding agent (CLI) like Claude Code for Local Development

via

LocalLlama

Hey all: I am trying to set up claude code to work with llama.cpp, I am using the Qwen3.6-35B-A3B. I usually use claude code + ZLM subscription i got lucky with $30 yearly - the set up is very simple with their automated script, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to get claude code to work. Am i hyper focusing on Claude Code or should I try things like pi.dev? Any help/pointers/guides would be appreciated.
