Abstract
Explore how open models fit into everyday software development with coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and Cline. This practical talk explains how agents interact with LLMs, how to evaluate models for coding workloads, and how to connect agents to OpenAI-compatible APIs.
Who it’s for
Software developers and engineering teams exploring open models for agent-assisted coding. Experience with a coding assistant or an LLM API is helpful.
What you’ll learn
- Understand how coding agents interact with LLMs.
- Choose open models for coding workloads.
- Evaluate tradeoffs between quality, speed, and cost.
- Connect coding agents to OpenAI-compatible APIs.
