  1. So, I've been using Deep Sea Carness for So, I've been using Deep Sea Carness for the past week now, and I found a lot of the past week now, and I found a lot of the past week now, and I found a lot of things that I really like about it, and things that I really like about it, and things that I really like about it, and a lot of things that I also don't really a lot of things that I also don't really a lot of things that I also don't really like about it. So, today I'm just going like about it. So, today I'm just going like about it. So, today I'm just going to give you guys my honest thoughts, to give you guys my honest thoughts, to give you guys my honest thoughts, break down what I've been using it for, break down what I've been using it for, break down what I've been using it for, how it feels, and I'm also going to be how it feels, and I'm also going to be how it feels, and I'm also going to be specifically talking about it in specifically talking about it in specifically talking about it in comparison with Cloud Code since I know comparison with Cloud Code since I know comparison with Cloud Code since I know that's on a lot of you guys' minds. So, that's on a lot of you guys' minds. So, that's on a lot of you guys' minds. So, let's not waste any time and just get let's not waste any time and just get let's not waste any time and just get straight into this video. Okay, I'm straight into this video. Okay, I'm straight into this video. Okay, I'm going to try to do this in about 60 going to try to do this in about 60 going to try to do this in about 60 seconds. If you've never heard of Deep seconds. If you've never heard of Deep seconds. If you've never heard of Deep Seek Harness, what is it? So, Deepseek Seek Harness, what is it? So, Deepseek Seek Harness, what is it? So, Deepseek has different models, right? We had a has different models, right? We had a has different models, right? We had a big Deepseek moment last year, Deepseek big Deepseek moment last year, Deepseek big Deepseek moment last year, Deepseek R1, and then we have like DeepSeek V4 R1, and then we have like DeepSeek V4 R1, and then we have like DeepSeek V4 Flash and Pro right now. Decent models, Flash and Pro right now. Decent models, Flash and Pro right now. Decent models, pretty cheap, but we have a harness now pretty cheap, but we have a harness now pretty cheap, but we have a harness now from Deepseek, which is open source, and from Deepseek, which is open source, and from Deepseek, which is open source, and it's free. So, as we know, we have it's free. So, as we know, we have it's free. So, as we know, we have something like Codeex, which is the something like Codeex, which is the something like Codeex, which is the harness, and the AI models that you can harness, and the AI models that you can harness, and the AI models that you can use inside Codeex natively are GBT 5.6 use inside Codeex natively are GBT 5.6 use inside Codeex natively are GBT 5.6 Soul, GBT 5.6 Luna, things like that. We Soul, GBT 5.6 Luna, things like that. We Soul, GBT 5.6 Luna, things like that. We have Cloud Code, which is a different have Cloud Code, which is a different have Cloud Code, which is a different harness, and the AI models we natively harness, and the AI models we natively harness, and the AI models we natively use inside of Cloud Code are Cloud Opus, use inside of Cloud Code are Cloud Opus, use inside of Cloud Code are Cloud Opus, Cloud Fable, things like that. And now Cloud Fable, things like that. And now Cloud Fable, things like that. And now we have a Deep Seek harness which has we have a Deep Seek harness which has we have a Deep Seek harness which has other AI models inside. I mean by other AI models inside. I mean by other AI models inside. I mean by natively we have the Deepseek models, natively we have the Deepseek models, natively we have the Deepseek models, but you can also add any of the other but you can also add any of the other but you can also add any of the other models. You can add Opus in there. You models. You can add Opus in there. You models. You can add Opus in there. You can add GBT in there. You can add Kimmy.

  2. can add GBT in there. You can add Kimmy. can add GBT in there. You can add Kimmy. You can add Meta if you're crazy enough You can add Meta if you're crazy enough You can add Meta if you're crazy enough to do it. You can add basically whatever to do it. You can add basically whatever to do it. You can add basically whatever you want in there. Now, yes, you can you want in there. Now, yes, you can you want in there. Now, yes, you can also do that with these harnesses as also do that with these harnesses as also do that with these harnesses as well, but they're not exactly like made well, but they're not exactly like made well, but they're not exactly like made for it or promoted as much. But also for it or promoted as much. But also for it or promoted as much. But also things like OpenClaw, that's an agent things like OpenClaw, that's an agent things like OpenClaw, that's an agent harness. Also something like Hermes harness. Also something like Hermes harness. Also something like Hermes Agent, that's an agent harness. So it's Agent, that's an agent harness. So it's Agent, that's an agent harness. So it's not groundbreaking new tech. It's just a not groundbreaking new tech. It's just a not groundbreaking new tech. It's just a new harness. But what's really cool new harness. But what's really cool new harness. But what's really cool about this one is because the harness is about this one is because the harness is about this one is because the harness is open source, we can like fully customize open source, we can like fully customize open source, we can like fully customize it. So with a closed source harness like it. So with a closed source harness like it. So with a closed source harness like Cloud Code, it has its basic kind of Cloud Code, it has its basic kind of Cloud Code, it has its basic kind of like prompting rules and it has its tool like prompting rules and it has its tool like prompting rules and it has its tool calls and it has its loops and it has calls and it has its loops and it has calls and it has its loops and it has its agentic harness that we can't touch. its agentic harness that we can't touch. its agentic harness that we can't touch. We can basically look at it like a car We can basically look at it like a car We can basically look at it like a car that we can sit in, we can drive it, we that we can sit in, we can drive it, we that we can sit in, we can drive it, we can change out the model of the engine, can change out the model of the engine, can change out the model of the engine, but we can't move things around. Whereas but we can't move things around. Whereas but we can't move things around. Whereas with our deep sea harness, the open with our deep sea harness, the open with our deep sea harness, the open source harness, we can switch out the source harness, we can switch out the source harness, we can switch out the seats. We can switch out the steering seats. We can switch out the steering seats. We can switch out the steering wheel. We can switch things out. We can wheel. We can switch things out. We can wheel. We can switch things out. We can change the way the agent actually change the way the agent actually change the way the agent actually behaves under the hood, which is pretty behaves under the hood, which is pretty behaves under the hood, which is pretty cool. And that's why a lot of people are cool. And that's why a lot of people are cool. And that's why a lot of people are freaking out because if you go back to freaking out because if you go back to freaking out because if you go back to the site, it literally says everything the site, it literally says everything the site, it literally says everything is a plugin. And so by that, they don't is a plugin. And so by that, they don't is a plugin. And so by that, they don't mean just like skills and like MCP mean just like skills and like MCP mean just like skills and like MCP servers. They mean every capability is a servers. They mean every capability is a servers. They mean every capability is a plug-in. Tools, skills, sessions, plug-in. Tools, skills, sessions, plug-in. Tools, skills, sessions, sandboxes, storage, loops, the UI. This sandboxes, storage, loops, the UI. This sandboxes, storage, loops, the UI. This is all a plug-in environment. And so I is all a plug-in environment. And so I is all a plug-in environment. And so I will just be honest about that real will just be honest about that real will just be honest about that real quick. In this video, I'm not going to quick. In this video, I'm not going to quick. In this video, I'm not going to be talking about plugins that I be talking about plugins that I be talking about plugins that I installed from other people or plugins installed from other people or plugins installed from other people or plugins that I've built because I wanted to see that I've built because I wanted to see that I've built because I wanted to see out of the box what this thing felt out of the box what this thing felt out of the box what this thing felt like. And I will say about plugins, be like. And I will say about plugins, be like. And I will say about plugins, be careful because if people are giving out careful because if people are giving out careful because if people are giving out all these open source plugins, you don't all these open source plugins, you don't all these open source plugins, you don't know what might be in there. So, be know what might be in there. So, be know what might be in there. So, be smart. Have Cloud Code or have Codex smart. Have Cloud Code or have Codex smart. Have Cloud Code or have Codex review the plugins before you ever review the plugins before you ever review the plugins before you ever install anything like that off the install anything like that off the install anything like that off the internet. Okay, so here are some of the internet. Okay, so here are some of the internet. Okay, so here are some of the things that I want to talk about today things that I want to talk about today things that I want to talk about today when it comes to our DeepC Carnis. So,

  3. when it comes to our DeepC Carnis. So, when it comes to our DeepC Carnis. So, the first thing is let me just open up the first thing is let me just open up the first thing is let me just open up the UI and just show you what it looks the UI and just show you what it looks the UI and just show you what it looks like real quick. So, it looks like a like real quick. So, it looks like a like real quick. So, it looks like a chatbot, right? It looks like kind of chatbot, right? It looks like kind of chatbot, right? It looks like kind of like the Chag app or whatever you might like the Chag app or whatever you might like the Chag app or whatever you might be familiar with. It's not going to be be familiar with. It's not going to be be familiar with. It's not going to be anything new or super confusing. You can anything new or super confusing. You can anything new or super confusing. You can have products on the left. You can have products on the left. You can have products on the left. You can manage your different sessions, things manage your different sessions, things manage your different sessions, things like that. Pretty normal stuff. And if like that. Pretty normal stuff. And if like that. Pretty normal stuff. And if you want to test this out, literally you want to test this out, literally you want to test this out, literally what I did is I gave the GitHub link to what I did is I gave the GitHub link to what I did is I gave the GitHub link to Codeex and I said, "Hey, help me set Codeex and I said, "Hey, help me set Codeex and I said, "Hey, help me set this up." It opens this up in a local this up." It opens this up in a local this up." It opens this up in a local host. So, this is completely local right host. So, this is completely local right host. So, this is completely local right now. And then you're pretty much all now. And then you're pretty much all now. And then you're pretty much all good. All you have to do from there is good. All you have to do from there is good. All you have to do from there is you're going to go to your settings. you're going to go to your settings. you're going to go to your settings. You're going to go to models and you're You're going to go to models and you're You're going to go to models and you're going to put in some sort of key. I put going to put in some sort of key. I put going to put in some sort of key. I put in an open router key which is why now I in an open router key which is why now I in an open router key which is why now I can choose between all of these can choose between all of these can choose between all of these different models that are available to different models that are available to different models that are available to me on open router. Unfortunately you me on open router. Unfortunately you me on open router. Unfortunately you can't by default use like a cloud can't by default use like a cloud can't by default use like a cloud subscription or a codec subscription. I subscription or a codec subscription. I subscription or a codec subscription. I have seen some plugins where people say have seen some plugins where people say have seen some plugins where people say that it works. I haven't myself tested that it works. I haven't myself tested that it works. I haven't myself tested it but if you are interested in that it but if you are interested in that it but if you are interested in that then definitely look into that. But then definitely look into that. But then definitely look into that. But default you're going to be charged here default you're going to be charged here default you're going to be charged here by token you know API billing. Anyways by token you know API billing. Anyways by token you know API billing. Anyways that's what it looks like. We'll look at that's what it looks like. We'll look at that's what it looks like. We'll look at some other stuff in this UI in a bit but some other stuff in this UI in a bit but some other stuff in this UI in a bit but let me just go back over here to this let me just go back over here to this let me just go back over here to this screen. Okay, so let's talk about output screen. Okay, so let's talk about output screen. Okay, so let's talk about output quality. This entirely depends on the quality. This entirely depends on the quality. This entirely depends on the model and the effort, of course. I mean, model and the effort, of course. I mean, model and the effort, of course. I mean, you have a harness, so that can do so you have a harness, so that can do so you have a harness, so that can do so much, but at the end of the day, the much, but at the end of the day, the much, but at the end of the day, the model is what's going to drive a lot of model is what's going to drive a lot of model is what's going to drive a lot of the actual quality that you're getting.

  4. the actual quality that you're getting. the actual quality that you're getting. If you put Fable 5 in here and then you If you put Fable 5 in here and then you If you put Fable 5 in here and then you put in like a super small local model, put in like a super small local model, put in like a super small local model, they're going to be a big difference in they're going to be a big difference in they're going to be a big difference in the output, right? So, just get that out the output, right? So, just get that out the output, right? So, just get that out of the way real quick. What's cool is of the way real quick. What's cool is of the way real quick. What's cool is how quickly and easily you can switch how quickly and easily you can switch how quickly and easily you can switch out different models and different out different models and different out different models and different modes. Because actually, if you go here, modes. Because actually, if you go here, modes. Because actually, if you go here, you can see that before I start a you can see that before I start a you can see that before I start a prompt, I can be in standard mode, PTC prompt, I can be in standard mode, PTC prompt, I can be in standard mode, PTC mode, minimal mode, or creator mode. So, mode, minimal mode, or creator mode. So, mode, minimal mode, or creator mode. So, let me dive into these real quick. let me dive into these real quick. let me dive into these real quick. Standard mode is what you're going to be Standard mode is what you're going to be Standard mode is what you're going to be on most of the time. Full coding agent on most of the time. Full coding agent on most of the time. Full coding agent with file editing, shell, file, web with file editing, shell, file, web with file editing, shell, file, web search, blah blah blah. That's standard search, blah blah blah. That's standard search, blah blah blah. That's standard mode. Now, PTC mode is really cool. It mode. Now, PTC mode is really cool. It mode. Now, PTC mode is really cool. It almost makes me think of sort of like in almost makes me think of sort of like in almost makes me think of sort of like in cloud code with that dynamic workflows. cloud code with that dynamic workflows. cloud code with that dynamic workflows. It's not exactly that, but it feels more It's not exactly that, but it feels more It's not exactly that, but it feels more like, okay, I've got this big task. I like, okay, I've got this big task. I like, okay, I've got this big task. I have a lot of stuff that I want to run have a lot of stuff that I want to run have a lot of stuff that I want to run in parallel. I've got multi-chain. Let in parallel. I've got multi-chain. Let in parallel. I've got multi-chain. Let me just ch throw this on PTC mode me just ch throw this on PTC mode me just ch throw this on PTC mode instead of standard mode. And I've instead of standard mode. And I've instead of standard mode. And I've gotten some pretty cool outputs gotten some pretty cool outputs gotten some pretty cool outputs comparing standard mode to PTC mode when comparing standard mode to PTC mode when comparing standard mode to PTC mode when I did it like that. Now, I want to talk I did it like that. Now, I want to talk I did it like that. Now, I want to talk about minimal mode because this is a two about minimal mode because this is a two about minimal mode because this is a two tool coding agent with persistent bash tool coding agent with persistent bash tool coding agent with persistent bash and whatever that means. But minimal and whatever that means. But minimal and whatever that means. But minimal mode is really solid because it gets rid mode is really solid because it gets rid mode is really solid because it gets rid of some of the context and it just kind of some of the context and it just kind of some of the context and it just kind of executes faster. And for things that of executes faster. And for things that of executes faster. And for things that you don't need to look through tons of you don't need to look through tons of you don't need to look through tons of things or do so many different actions, things or do so many different actions, things or do so many different actions, minimal mode is solid. It's fast. It minimal mode is solid. It's fast. It minimal mode is solid. It's fast. It feels cheap. It feels efficient. But let feels cheap. It feels efficient. But let feels cheap. It feels efficient. But let me show you one thing about standard me show you one thing about standard me show you one thing about standard versus minimal. If I shoot off high, who versus minimal. If I shoot off high, who versus minimal. If I shoot off high, who am I in standard mode, it immediately am I in standard mode, it immediately am I in standard mode, it immediately has a context injection. It reads my has a context injection. It reads my has a context injection. It reads my agents MD and my cloudmd and my cloudmd agents MD and my cloudmd and my cloudmd agents MD and my cloudmd and my cloudmd local. Then it reads the deepseek system local. Then it reads the deepseek system local. Then it reads the deepseek system prompt and then it looks in the skill prompt and then it looks in the skill prompt and then it looks in the skill catalog. So that's basically what catalog. So that's basically what catalog. So that's basically what happens right away. We get that happens right away. We get that happens right away. We get that fullergentic loop and it understands fullergentic loop and it understands fullergentic loop and it understands things about me. And we've talked a lot things about me. And we've talked a lot things about me. And we've talked a lot about being tool agnostic and model

  5. about being tool agnostic and model about being tool agnostic and model agnostic, right? And harness agnostic. agnostic, right? And harness agnostic. agnostic, right? And harness agnostic. this thing immediately. I plugged it this thing immediately. I plugged it this thing immediately. I plugged it into my AIOS and I didn't have to change into my AIOS and I didn't have to change into my AIOS and I didn't have to change anything. It already feels like it's anything. It already feels like it's anything. It already feels like it's right in my AIOS. Now, watch this. If I right in my AIOS. Now, watch this. If I right in my AIOS. Now, watch this. If I start a new chat in here and I go to start a new chat in here and I go to start a new chat in here and I go to minimal mode, hi, who am I? Watch what minimal mode, hi, who am I? Watch what minimal mode, hi, who am I? Watch what happens. It doesn't do that context happens. It doesn't do that context happens. It doesn't do that context injection right away. So, this is almost injection right away. So, this is almost injection right away. So, this is almost more like you're getting one-off chats more like you're getting one-off chats more like you're getting one-off chats and you're trying to do quick tasks. and you're trying to do quick tasks. and you're trying to do quick tasks. You're not getting that whole like I'm You're not getting that whole like I'm You're not getting that whole like I'm in Cloud Code or I'm in Codeex and I'm in Cloud Code or I'm in Codeex and I'm in Cloud Code or I'm in Codeex and I'm in my AOS. So, keep that in mind. But in my AOS. So, keep that in mind. But in my AOS. So, keep that in mind. But what that does mean is I didn't have to what that does mean is I didn't have to what that does mean is I didn't have to change like anything in order to use my change like anything in order to use my change like anything in order to use my Cloud skills and my Claude context and Cloud skills and my Claude context and Cloud skills and my Claude context and all of that kind of stuff. So that is all of that kind of stuff. So that is all of that kind of stuff. So that is pretty cool. Okay, let's go to cost. So pretty cool. Okay, let's go to cost. So pretty cool. Okay, let's go to cost. So the harness is completely free. You the harness is completely free. You the harness is completely free. You could run this harness 24/7 with a free could run this harness 24/7 with a free could run this harness 24/7 with a free model and you would never get charged. model and you would never get charged. model and you would never get charged. But for inference, that's not free. But for inference, that's not free. But for inference, that's not free. Deepseek models are cheap. They're Deepseek models are cheap. They're Deepseek models are cheap. They're pretty solid. Deepseek V4 flash is pretty solid. Deepseek V4 flash is pretty solid. Deepseek V4 flash is really good. Deepseek V4 Pro is also really good. Deepseek V4 Pro is also really good. Deepseek V4 Pro is also really good. Um, obviously Flash is really good. Um, obviously Flash is really good. Um, obviously Flash is cheaper, but both of those models can't cheaper, but both of those models can't cheaper, but both of those models can't see anything. So, I had Deepseek V4 see anything. So, I had Deepseek V4 see anything. So, I had Deepseek V4 Flash is what I was testing this this Flash is what I was testing this this Flash is what I was testing this this harness on for the first couple days and harness on for the first couple days and harness on for the first couple days and it was really good. But when I was doing it was really good. But when I was doing it was really good. But when I was doing things like this, for example, I made things like this, for example, I made things like this, for example, I made this website with Deepseek V4 Flash in this website with Deepseek V4 Flash in this website with Deepseek V4 Flash in the Deepseek harness and it's really the Deepseek harness and it's really the Deepseek harness and it's really solid, right? It took these assets. It solid, right? It took these assets. It solid, right? It took these assets. It had my brand guidelines. It has the had my brand guidelines. It has the had my brand guidelines. It has the scroll thing. It has like this standard scroll thing. It has like this standard scroll thing. It has like this standard feel matches the brand guidelines. But feel matches the brand guidelines. But feel matches the brand guidelines. But look at this. This is where something look at this. This is where something look at this. This is where something that Codeex or Cloud Code would have that Codeex or Cloud Code would have that Codeex or Cloud Code would have never let happen because of the never let happen because of the never let happen because of the verification checks and because of the verification checks and because of the verification checks and because of the ability to screenshot, look, reason, ability to screenshot, look, reason, ability to screenshot, look, reason, iterate. There's a lot of things when it iterate. There's a lot of things when it iterate. There's a lot of things when it comes to a UI and design perspective comes to a UI and design perspective comes to a UI and design perspective that the Deepseek models will not be

  6. that the Deepseek models will not be that the Deepseek models will not be very good at because it can't very good at because it can't very good at because it can't screenshot, it can't look. Now, that screenshot, it can't look. Now, that screenshot, it can't look. Now, that doesn't mean that Deepseek harness doesn't mean that Deepseek harness doesn't mean that Deepseek harness couldn't be good at design. It just couldn't be good at design. It just couldn't be good at design. It just means that the the models that you're means that the the models that you're means that the the models that you're putting inside there, you have to be putting inside there, you have to be putting inside there, you have to be aware of what are their strengths and aware of what are their strengths and aware of what are their strengths and weaknesses. And so similarly when we get weaknesses. And so similarly when we get weaknesses. And so similarly when we get to tokens, this can be really really to tokens, this can be really really to tokens, this can be really really cheap tokens. So like let's say you're cheap tokens. So like let's say you're cheap tokens. So like let's say you're using a um local model or you're using using a um local model or you're using using a um local model or you're using one of open routers free models, really one of open routers free models, really one of open routers free models, really cheap tokens, but guess what? If it's cheap tokens, but guess what? If it's cheap tokens, but guess what? If it's not an efficient harness or if the model not an efficient harness or if the model not an efficient harness or if the model is so bad that it's not running is so bad that it's not running is so bad that it's not running efficiently, then ultimately that's not efficiently, then ultimately that's not efficiently, then ultimately that's not really that cheap. So token, you know, really that cheap. So token, you know, really that cheap. So token, you know, you look at your 1 million input, 1 you look at your 1 million input, 1 you look at your 1 million input, 1 million output, those numbers can be million output, those numbers can be million output, those numbers can be deceiving sometimes because it's also deceiving sometimes because it's also deceiving sometimes because it's also about efficiency and cost to completion about efficiency and cost to completion about efficiency and cost to completion rather than just cost for tokens, right? rather than just cost for tokens, right? rather than just cost for tokens, right? Okay, reliability. It feels very Okay, reliability. It feels very Okay, reliability. It feels very promising, but it certainly feels like a promising, but it certainly feels like a promising, but it certainly feels like a preview. You can see that it literally preview. You can see that it literally preview. You can see that it literally says, you know, this is a developer says, you know, this is a developer says, you know, this is a developer preview, and that's what it feels like. preview, and that's what it feels like. preview, and that's what it feels like. There are some bugs. There are sometimes There are some bugs. There are sometimes There are some bugs. There are sometimes it just stopped working for me. There it just stopped working for me. There it just stopped working for me. There was literally one time where it locked was literally one time where it locked was literally one time where it locked my mouse. Like my mouse could only move my mouse. Like my mouse could only move my mouse. Like my mouse could only move in a square that was about this big, and in a square that was about this big, and in a square that was about this big, and I was like, "Uh, CEX, can you help me I was like, "Uh, CEX, can you help me I was like, "Uh, CEX, can you help me out?" I don't know if I just got hacked out?" I don't know if I just got hacked out?" I don't know if I just got hacked or something, but it was able to fix it.

  7. or something, but it was able to fix it. or something, but it was able to fix it. There are some bugs. There are some bugs There are some bugs. There are some bugs There are some bugs. There are some bugs with like the the compression. Sometimes with like the the compression. Sometimes with like the the compression. Sometimes it just feels like it completely forgot it just feels like it completely forgot it just feels like it completely forgot what I was talking about. I do like the what I was talking about. I do like the what I was talking about. I do like the direction. It feels like it has a lot of direction. It feels like it has a lot of direction. It feels like it has a lot of promise, but like I said, there are some promise, but like I said, there are some promise, but like I said, there are some things right now that just feel a little things right now that just feel a little things right now that just feel a little bit buggy when you're getting into like bit buggy when you're getting into like bit buggy when you're getting into like long sessions or you're trying to work long sessions or you're trying to work long sessions or you're trying to work on some sort of big project. So, just on some sort of big project. So, just on some sort of big project. So, just like I said, long sessions, you get some like I said, long sessions, you get some like I said, long sessions, you get some compaction bugs and sometimes you get compaction bugs and sometimes you get compaction bugs and sometimes you get some context regressions. You could also some context regressions. You could also some context regressions. You could also argue that's a little bit user error and argue that's a little bit user error and argue that's a little bit user error and yeah, I was trying to see like where it yeah, I was trying to see like where it yeah, I was trying to see like where it would break and I was trying to see what would break and I was trying to see what would break and I was trying to see what would happen and like context rot would happen and like context rot would happen and like context rot territory, but it did overall the UI territory, but it did overall the UI territory, but it did overall the UI still in some places felt a little bit still in some places felt a little bit still in some places felt a little bit buggy. Customization though, this is buggy. Customization though, this is buggy. Customization though, this is where this thing absolutely crushes. where this thing absolutely crushes. where this thing absolutely crushes. It's not even close to codeex or claw It's not even close to codeex or claw It's not even close to codeex or claw code. Like it's way in a different code. Like it's way in a different code. Like it's way in a different league, of course, because you can do league, of course, because you can do league, of course, because you can do whatever you want in here. If I go back whatever you want in here. If I go back whatever you want in here. If I go back over here, I realized that when I was over here, I realized that when I was over here, I realized that when I was talking about these harnesses, I stopped talking about these harnesses, I stopped talking about these harnesses, I stopped talking about these modes. But look at talking about these modes. But look at talking about these modes. But look at this mode. This mode is called creator this mode. This mode is called creator this mode. This mode is called creator mode. This is literally when you want to mode. This is literally when you want to mode. This is literally when you want to create custom agent presets, you want to create custom agent presets, you want to create custom agent presets, you want to build plugins, you want to change the build plugins, you want to change the build plugins, you want to change the UI. This is how you do it. So, you would UI. This is how you do it. So, you would UI. This is how you do it. So, you would turn to creator mode and you'd say, turn to creator mode and you'd say, turn to creator mode and you'd say, "Hey, can you like build me this for my "Hey, can you like build me this for my "Hey, can you like build me this for my harness?" And look at this. This is harness?" And look at this. This is harness?" And look at this. This is another bug, right? I'm clicking on another bug, right? I'm clicking on another bug, right? I'm clicking on creator mode and it's just instantly creator mode and it's just instantly creator mode and it's just instantly switching back. So, little bit of a bug.

  8. switching back. So, little bit of a bug. switching back. So, little bit of a bug. I would have to restart the harness and I would have to restart the harness and I would have to restart the harness and it probably be fine. But also, if I go it probably be fine. But also, if I go it probably be fine. But also, if I go to my settings, you can see here that to my settings, you can see here that to my settings, you can see here that when you go to your plugins, you can when you go to your plugins, you can when you go to your plugins, you can change these things right away, right? change these things right away, right? change these things right away, right? Like our shell, you can change these Like our shell, you can change these Like our shell, you can change these settings. You can change the agent loop, settings. You can change the agent loop, settings. You can change the agent loop, you can change the web search provider, you can change the web search provider, you can change the web search provider, or you can put in the DC provider. And or you can put in the DC provider. And or you can put in the DC provider. And then you can have this list of plugins then you can have this list of plugins then you can have this list of plugins where it has all of these things that where it has all of these things that where it has all of these things that you can turn on, turn off, you can you can turn on, turn off, you can you can turn on, turn off, you can customize these. You can also, like I customize these. You can also, like I customize these. You can also, like I said, there's a bunch of GitHub repos said, there's a bunch of GitHub repos said, there's a bunch of GitHub repos out there where people have been out there where people have been out there where people have been building custom Deep Sea Carniss or DSH building custom Deep Sea Carniss or DSH building custom Deep Sea Carniss or DSH plugins, but like I said, I didn't want plugins, but like I said, I didn't want plugins, but like I said, I didn't want to focus on that in today's video to focus on that in today's video to focus on that in today's video because I wanted to just see how this because I wanted to just see how this because I wanted to just see how this thing felt on its own. But the thing felt on its own. But the thing felt on its own. But the customization is unmatched. Here's the customization is unmatched. Here's the customization is unmatched. Here's the thing though, for me personally, the thing though, for me personally, the thing though, for me personally, the majority of the time that I'm using majority of the time that I'm using majority of the time that I'm using Claude Code and Codeex, it's for video Claude Code and Codeex, it's for video Claude Code and Codeex, it's for video editing, it's for research, it's for editing, it's for research, it's for editing, it's for research, it's for knowledge work, it's for document knowledge work, it's for document knowledge work, it's for document creation, I have never felt a gap in creation, I have never felt a gap in creation, I have never felt a gap in Claude Code or Codex where I'm like, I Claude Code or Codex where I'm like, I Claude Code or Codex where I'm like, I really wish the harness did this, this, really wish the harness did this, this, really wish the harness did this, this, and this. I really wish I could and this. I really wish I could and this. I really wish I could customize the harness in this way. Now, customize the harness in this way. Now, customize the harness in this way. Now, if you're a hardcore developer, if if you're a hardcore developer, if if you're a hardcore developer, if you're building products, you probably you're building products, you probably you're building products, you probably have had those moments. And if you have had those moments. And if you have had those moments. And if you actually have a pain in your typical actually have a pain in your typical actually have a pain in your typical dayto-day, week to week, where you're dayto-day, week to week, where you're dayto-day, week to week, where you're like, man, I want to customize my like, man, I want to customize my like, man, I want to customize my harness, then this is going to be for harness, then this is going to be for harness, then this is going to be for you for sure. Me personally, I have some you for sure. Me personally, I have some you for sure. Me personally, I have some use cases in mind where I'm going to use use cases in mind where I'm going to use use cases in mind where I'm going to use this. Maybe I'm getting close to my this. Maybe I'm getting close to my this. Maybe I'm getting close to my limits. Maybe I have a bunch of limits. Maybe I have a bunch of limits. Maybe I have a bunch of knowledge work I need to get done or a knowledge work I need to get done or a knowledge work I need to get done or a bunch of research and I can, hey, come bunch of research and I can, hey, come bunch of research and I can, hey, come into Deepseek. I can put on a really into Deepseek. I can put on a really into Deepseek. I can put on a really cheap model in here and then just go cheap model in here and then just go cheap model in here and then just go ahead and shoot that off in Deep Seek ahead and shoot that off in Deep Seek ahead and shoot that off in Deep Seek and boom, it's going to be good. But I and boom, it's going to be good. But I and boom, it's going to be good. But I don't have that need to build my own don't have that need to build my own don't have that need to build my own harness. At least not right now. I think harness. At least not right now. I think harness. At least not right now. I think though, seeing how this is waking people though, seeing how this is waking people though, seeing how this is waking people up and seeing like the energy around up and seeing like the energy around up and seeing like the energy around this idea of wow, like we might soon be this idea of wow, like we might soon be this idea of wow, like we might soon be able to all have our own custom able to all have our own custom able to all have our own custom harnesses that are really, you know,

  9. harnesses that are really, you know, harnesses that are really, you know, custom made for us. It's very cool, custom made for us. It's very cool, custom made for us. It's very cool, especially because when you want to if especially because when you want to if especially because when you want to if you run into some issue or, you know, you run into some issue or, you know, you run into some issue or, you know, something's going wrong, just say, "Hey, something's going wrong, just say, "Hey, something's going wrong, just say, "Hey, switch to creator mode. Let's build a switch to creator mode. Let's build a switch to creator mode. Let's build a fix for this. Let's fix what just fix for this. Let's fix what just fix for this. Let's fix what just happened by building a custom plugin to happened by building a custom plugin to happened by building a custom plugin to this harness. And I think that's really this harness. And I think that's really this harness. And I think that's really cool and I think that's where we're cool and I think that's where we're cool and I think that's where we're headed. So finally, the question I headed. So finally, the question I headed. So finally, the question I wanted to sort of end off on here and wanted to sort of end off on here and wanted to sort of end off on here and I'll still run through some more I'll still run through some more I'll still run through some more examples is that does this replace examples is that does this replace examples is that does this replace Claude? And I would say no. No. I mean, Claude? And I would say no. No. I mean, Claude? And I would say no. No. I mean, if you want to do deep deep stuff, I if you want to do deep deep stuff, I if you want to do deep deep stuff, I still think that the Claude code harness still think that the Claude code harness still think that the Claude code harness is going to have your back. I also think is going to have your back. I also think is going to have your back. I also think because if you want to use like Opus, because if you want to use like Opus, because if you want to use like Opus, then you're going to get way better bang then you're going to get way better bang then you're going to get way better bang for your buck on the subscription inside for your buck on the subscription inside for your buck on the subscription inside of Cloud Code than if you used Opus of Cloud Code than if you used Opus of Cloud Code than if you used Opus inside of this DeepC harness, which I inside of this DeepC harness, which I inside of this DeepC harness, which I did a lot of testing with that. I'm did a lot of testing with that. I'm did a lot of testing with that. I'm going to get into that in just a few going to get into that in just a few going to get into that in just a few minutes here. Um, and similarly with minutes here. Um, and similarly with minutes here. Um, and similarly with Codeex, I just think that right now for Codeex, I just think that right now for Codeex, I just think that right now for what I'm doing, this does not replace what I'm doing, this does not replace what I'm doing, this does not replace cloud code to me at all. This is not a cloud code to me at all. This is not a cloud code to me at all. This is not a free cloud code. This is just a free free cloud code. This is just a free free cloud code. This is just a free harness and you can switch out different harness and you can switch out different harness and you can switch out different cheap models if you want, which by the cheap models if you want, which by the cheap models if you want, which by the way, you can use any model you want way, you can use any model you want way, you can use any model you want inside Cloud Code and Codeex 2. You just inside Cloud Code and Codeex 2. You just inside Cloud Code and Codeex 2. You just have to configure that. I've made videos have to configure that. I've made videos have to configure that. I've made videos about that if you want to check it out. about that if you want to check it out. about that if you want to check it out. I'll tag one right up here. It'll I'll tag one right up here. It'll I'll tag one right up here. It'll probably be right up here on putting probably be right up here on putting probably be right up here on putting your own model or a different model into your own model or a different model into your own model or a different model into Cloud Code. So, if you're seeing that Cloud Code. So, if you're seeing that Cloud Code. So, if you're seeing that like Deep Sea Carness is a free cloud like Deep Sea Carness is a free cloud like Deep Sea Carness is a free cloud code, it's not. It's a completely code, it's not. It's a completely code, it's not. It's a completely different harness. So, let me show you different harness. So, let me show you different harness. So, let me show you some examples of that. The first thing some examples of that. The first thing some examples of that. The first thing that I've noticed about Deep Sea Carness that I've noticed about Deep Sea Carness that I've noticed about Deep Sea Carness is it's super super fast. Like this is it's super super fast. Like this is it's super super fast. Like this thing will find things in my AIOS thing will find things in my AIOS thing will find things in my AIOS quicker than Claude. So, for example, I quicker than Claude. So, for example, I quicker than Claude. So, for example, I would say, "Hey, can you remember that would say, "Hey, can you remember that would say, "Hey, can you remember that project we were working on last week project we were working on last week project we were working on last week where we talked about this, this, and where we talked about this, this, and where we talked about this, this, and this. I don't remember what it was this. I don't remember what it was this. I don't remember what it was called, but can you go find it and pull called, but can you go find it and pull called, but can you go find it and pull it up?" And I did that same prompt at it up?" And I did that same prompt at it up?" And I did that same prompt at the exact same time to both systems the exact same time to both systems the exact same time to both systems multiple times. DeepSeek blew Cloud Code multiple times. DeepSeek blew Cloud Code multiple times. DeepSeek blew Cloud Code out of the water. Like, I'm talking 1 out of the water. Like, I'm talking 1 out of the water. Like, I'm talking 1 minute in Deep Seek and five plus

  10. minute in Deep Seek and five plus minute in Deep Seek and five plus minutes in Cloud Code. Let me actually minutes in Cloud Code. Let me actually minutes in Cloud Code. Let me actually just show you guys a real quick example just show you guys a real quick example just show you guys a real quick example of that. Okay, so shooting off the exact of that. Okay, so shooting off the exact of that. Okay, so shooting off the exact same prompt at the same time to these same prompt at the same time to these same prompt at the same time to these different harnesses. I've got a huge different harnesses. I've got a huge different harnesses. I've got a huge wiki in here. This is my AI operating wiki in here. This is my AI operating wiki in here. This is my AI operating system. It has to look through so much system. It has to look through so much system. It has to look through so much stuff and it's going to be my guess is stuff and it's going to be my guess is stuff and it's going to be my guess is it's going to find it quicker over here. it's going to find it quicker over here. it's going to find it quicker over here. Actually, sorry. The screen's a little Actually, sorry. The screen's a little Actually, sorry. The screen's a little bit off. Um I I think that it's going to bit off. Um I I think that it's going to bit off. Um I I think that it's going to find it quicker in DeSseek because every find it quicker in DeSseek because every find it quicker in DeSseek because every time I've done this, it has found it time I've done this, it has found it time I've done this, it has found it quicker in Deep Seek. What is going on quicker in Deep Seek. What is going on quicker in Deep Seek. What is going on over here? Okay, I'm sorry. Hope that over here? Okay, I'm sorry. Hope that over here? Okay, I'm sorry. Hope that that isn't annoying. But yeah, let me that isn't annoying. But yeah, let me that isn't annoying. But yeah, let me just show you when this is done. Look at just show you when this is done. Look at just show you when this is done. Look at this. So already over here in Deepseek this. So already over here in Deepseek this. So already over here in Deepseek about 50 seconds, it found the about 50 seconds, it found the about 50 seconds, it found the transcript. It searched through transcript. It searched through transcript. It searched through everything and it gave me the two everything and it gave me the two everything and it gave me the two sentence summary and cloud code over sentence summary and cloud code over sentence summary and cloud code over here is still searching. These are both here is still searching. These are both here is still searching. These are both using the same model. So the harness using the same model. So the harness using the same model. So the harness here just works so much more here just works so much more here just works so much more efficiently. And even when I'm, you efficiently. And even when I'm, you efficiently. And even when I'm, you know, pushing out sub agents, hey, can know, pushing out sub agents, hey, can know, pushing out sub agents, hey, can you guys spin up a bunch of sub agents, you guys spin up a bunch of sub agents, you guys spin up a bunch of sub agents, do research? I've done a ton of tests of do research? I've done a ton of tests of do research? I've done a ton of tests of literally sidebyside prompts, exact same literally sidebyside prompts, exact same literally sidebyside prompts, exact same thing. And Deepseek just gets the answer thing. And Deepseek just gets the answer thing. And Deepseek just gets the answer for me so much quicker. It's so for me so much quicker. It's so for me so much quicker. It's so consistently quicker. And while this is consistently quicker. And while this is consistently quicker. And while this is still going, let me show you the still going, let me show you the still going, let me show you the trajectory thing in Deepseek. So if I trajectory thing in Deepseek. So if I trajectory thing in Deepseek. So if I click into directory, it actually shows click into directory, it actually shows click into directory, it actually shows us a super granular like intermediate us a super granular like intermediate us a super granular like intermediate steps and it's all in one spot and this steps and it's all in one spot and this steps and it's all in one spot and this continues to go out through the whole continues to go out through the whole continues to go out through the whole session and you can also download the session and you can also download the session and you can also download the session log. So what's really cool about session log. So what's really cool about session log. So what's really cool about this is think about how when you do this is think about how when you do this is think about how when you do something like this and you want to go something like this and you want to go something like this and you want to go back and say hey turn that into a skill back and say hey turn that into a skill back and say hey turn that into a skill for me or hey turn this into a plugin or for me or hey turn this into a plugin or for me or hey turn this into a plugin or did you see what happened in this did you see what happened in this did you see what happened in this session? Can we build a plugin to fix x session? Can we build a plugin to fix x session? Can we build a plugin to fix x y and z that just happened so that next y and z that just happened so that next y and z that just happened so that next time your harness agentic loop runs this time your harness agentic loop runs this time your harness agentic loop runs this doesn't happen. This is pretty cool. And doesn't happen. This is pretty cool. And doesn't happen. This is pretty cool. And I also like the direction that they're I also like the direction that they're I also like the direction that they're taking this visual sort of like taking this visual sort of like taking this visual sort of like trajectory trajectory trajectory in because every time you shoot off a

  11. in because every time you shoot off a in because every time you shoot off a prompt, it'll show this is the user prompt, it'll show this is the user prompt, it'll show this is the user prompt. Here's all the context that came prompt. Here's all the context that came prompt. Here's all the context that came in. Here's all the things that happened. in. Here's all the things that happened. in. Here's all the things that happened. I really like this. Okay, so Claude Code I really like this. Okay, so Claude Code I really like this. Okay, so Claude Code is still searching for that transcript. is still searching for that transcript. is still searching for that transcript. I'm just going to put him away right I'm just going to put him away right I'm just going to put him away right now. We don't really need to watch that now. We don't really need to watch that now. We don't really need to watch that happen. It's kind of sad. Let me talk happen. It's kind of sad. Let me talk happen. It's kind of sad. Let me talk about some other things that I've done. about some other things that I've done. about some other things that I've done. So, I shot off a prompt to both of them So, I shot off a prompt to both of them So, I shot off a prompt to both of them and I asked them to look through my and I asked them to look through my and I asked them to look through my YouTube data to find the analytics that YouTube data to find the analytics that YouTube data to find the analytics that have been recently pulled and build me a have been recently pulled and build me a have been recently pulled and build me a little Excel sheet that breaks it down. little Excel sheet that breaks it down. little Excel sheet that breaks it down. I think this is a really good example I think this is a really good example I think this is a really good example that I typically like to see if agents that I typically like to see if agents that I typically like to see if agents can do because it uses some skills. It can do because it uses some skills. It can do because it uses some skills. It uses some um like API calls and it uses uses some um like API calls and it uses uses some um like API calls and it uses some like reasoning and structuring some like reasoning and structuring some like reasoning and structuring scripts to build a deliverable. So, this scripts to build a deliverable. So, this scripts to build a deliverable. So, this is the first one. This is the one that is the first one. This is the one that is the first one. This is the one that was created for me by Deep Seek Caress was created for me by Deep Seek Caress was created for me by Deep Seek Caress with Opus 5. So, same model under the with Opus 5. So, same model under the with Opus 5. So, same model under the hood and this one came back in about 3 hood and this one came back in about 3 hood and this one came back in about 3 minutes whereas the other one from Cloud minutes whereas the other one from Cloud minutes whereas the other one from Cloud Code took I think it was 17 minutes. So, Code took I think it was 17 minutes. So, Code took I think it was 17 minutes. So, big difference like big big difference big difference like big big difference big difference like big big difference there. Let's talk about quality though. there. Let's talk about quality though. there. Let's talk about quality though. So, Deep Sea came back with the So, Deep Sea came back with the So, Deep Sea came back with the performance data on the trailing three performance data on the trailing three performance data on the trailing three months. It's got videos. So, what I months. It's got videos. So, what I months. It's got videos. So, what I really like here is it also colorcoded really like here is it also colorcoded really like here is it also colorcoded these columns on views and engagement these columns on views and engagement these columns on views and engagement rate which was pretty cool. We have top rate which was pretty cool. We have top rate which was pretty cool. We have top and bottom and it created this top 10 by and bottom and it created this top 10 by and bottom and it created this top 10 by views chart. Now, it's kind of tough to views chart. Now, it's kind of tough to views chart. Now, it's kind of tough to see because like it doesn't actually see because like it doesn't actually see because like it doesn't actually label anything. It literally just shows label anything. It literally just shows label anything. It literally just shows graphics, but it does correlate to these graphics, but it does correlate to these graphics, but it does correlate to these top 10 over here, which is cool. And we top 10 over here, which is cool. And we top 10 over here, which is cool. And we also have the bottom 10. We go into also have the bottom 10. We go into also have the bottom 10. We go into monthly trend. We can see once again, it monthly trend. We can see once again, it monthly trend. We can see once again, it created a little chart for us. What I'm created a little chart for us. What I'm created a little chart for us. What I'm noticing about this is it's pretty noticing about this is it's pretty noticing about this is it's pretty simple, but it delivers me the simple, but it delivers me the simple, but it delivers me the information in an effective way because information in an effective way because information in an effective way because it's easy to interpret. It's not too it's easy to interpret. It's not too it's easy to interpret. It's not too wordy. It's not word vomit. We have tag

  12. wordy. It's not word vomit. We have tag wordy. It's not word vomit. We have tag analysis as well with another analysis as well with another analysis as well with another color-coded section. And then we have color-coded section. And then we have color-coded section. And then we have notes and sources. Now, let's take a notes and sources. Now, let's take a notes and sources. Now, let's take a look at the one that Claude Code made look at the one that Claude Code made look at the one that Claude Code made for us. So, this is the exact same data. for us. So, this is the exact same data. for us. So, this is the exact same data. Um, obviously, this one took longer, but Um, obviously, this one took longer, but Um, obviously, this one took longer, but this one's a lot wordier. Arguably, this this one's a lot wordier. Arguably, this this one's a lot wordier. Arguably, this has better analytics. The drill down's a has better analytics. The drill down's a has better analytics. The drill down's a little bit better. It's a bit more little bit better. It's a bit more little bit better. It's a bit more specific. It gives us this last 90 days. specific. It gives us this last 90 days. specific. It gives us this last 90 days. The metrics are coming in just as good, The metrics are coming in just as good, The metrics are coming in just as good, if not better. We don't have any color if not better. We don't have any color if not better. We don't have any color coding. It gives us more tabs. It gives coding. It gives us more tabs. It gives coding. It gives us more tabs. It gives us more data. Honestly, it even did all us more data. Honestly, it even did all us more data. Honestly, it even did all videos, which is like all 467 videos. It videos, which is like all 467 videos. It videos, which is like all 467 videos. It did top 50. It did monthly trend. So did top 50. It did monthly trend. So did top 50. It did monthly trend. So this as far as quality was a better this as far as quality was a better this as far as quality was a better output. I will say though like this is a output. I will say though like this is a output. I will say though like this is a bit word vomit. But I will say I also bit word vomit. But I will say I also bit word vomit. But I will say I also gave them both a very vague prompt. I gave them both a very vague prompt. I gave them both a very vague prompt. I literally just said create me an Excel literally just said create me an Excel literally just said create me an Excel sheet showing me the data. If I would sheet showing me the data. If I would sheet showing me the data. If I would have instructed them, hey this is what I have instructed them, hey this is what I have instructed them, hey this is what I want to see. These are my pain points want to see. These are my pain points want to see. These are my pain points and this is what I'm concerned about. and this is what I'm concerned about. and this is what I'm concerned about. Then they probably would have both Then they probably would have both Then they probably would have both tailored something a little bit more tailored something a little bit more tailored something a little bit more specific. But I wanted to see what they specific. But I wanted to see what they specific. But I wanted to see what they did with a vague prompt. Here's another did with a vague prompt. Here's another did with a vague prompt. Here's another one. I asked them to use my storm one. I asked them to use my storm one. I asked them to use my storm research skill to build a report about research skill to build a report about research skill to build a report about um the effects of sugar on the body. And um the effects of sugar on the body. And um the effects of sugar on the body. And so we got these two outputs. This one is so we got these two outputs. This one is so we got these two outputs. This one is from Claude Code and this one is from um from Claude Code and this one is from um from Claude Code and this one is from um Deep Sea Carness. Now, they look the Deep Sea Carness. Now, they look the Deep Sea Carness. Now, they look the exact same because it's a skill. They exact same because it's a skill. They exact same because it's a skill. They use the skill. They were supposed to use the skill. They were supposed to use the skill. They were supposed to structure it like this. So, they both structure it like this. So, they both structure it like this. So, they both followed the skill well, which is good.

  13. followed the skill well, which is good. followed the skill well, which is good.

But when I or make you read all this. But when I or make you read all this. But when I read these and I looked at the sources read these and I looked at the sources read these and I looked at the sources and I looked at how they did it, here's and I looked at how they did it, here's and I looked at how they did it, here's what I found. Claude Code did this in what I found. Claude Code did this in what I found. Claude Code did this in about 5,000 words, whereas Deep Sea about 5,000 words, whereas Deep Sea about 5,000 words, whereas Deep Sea Caress did this in about 4,400. So, Caress did this in about 4,400. So, Caress did this in about 4,400. So, Claude Code had a little bit more Claude Code had a little bit more Claude Code had a little bit more wordage in here. We also see that cloud wordage in here. We also see that cloud wordage in here. We also see that cloud code had 26 sources and then we had deep code had 26 sources and then we had deep code had 26 sources and then we had deep sea harness with 14 at least 14 that sea harness with 14 at least 14 that sea harness with 14 at least 14 that were considered loadbearing.

I'm not saying that one is better than the other based on what I is better than the other based on what I is better than the other based on what I prompted. I just think that that's prompted. I just think that that's prompted. I just think that that's really interesting how much that harness really interesting how much that harness really interesting how much that harness affects the underlying same exact model. affects the underlying same exact model. affects the underlying same exact model. Cloud code also kind of typically came Cloud code also kind of typically came Cloud code also kind of typically came across as more conservative with its across as more conservative with its across as more conservative with its findings and with its facts. While findings and with its facts. While findings and with its facts. While sometimes deepse harness was like too sometimes deepse harness was like too sometimes deepse harness was like too confident. It like it told me something confident. It like it told me something confident. It like it told me something that I was like h I actually don't know that I was like h I actually don't know that I was like h I actually don't know if I agree with that. So overall, which if I agree with that. So overall, which if I agree with that. So overall, which one of these do I trust more? I trust one of these do I trust more? I trust one of these do I trust more? I trust the Claude Code one more. Like I'd the Claude Code one more. Like I'd the Claude Code one more. Like I'd probably be more willing to give the probably be more willing to give the probably be more willing to give the Claude code deliverable to a client or Claude code deliverable to a client or Claude code deliverable to a client or to my team compared to the Deep Sea to my team compared to the Deep Sea to my team compared to the Deep Sea Caress one. But also keep in mind that Caress one. But also keep in mind that Caress one. But also keep in mind that the skills that I've built that I'm the skills that I've built that I'm the skills that I've built that I'm having DeepC use were built for Claude having DeepC use were built for Claude having DeepC use were built for Claude code. And you you all should hopefully code. And you you all should hopefully code. And you you all should hopefully understand that when you upgrade your understand that when you upgrade your understand that when you upgrade your model or you switch harnesses, the model or you switch harnesses, the model or you switch harnesses, the skills are interpreted a little bit skills are interpreted a little bit skills are interpreted a little bit different every time. Which means if I different every time. Which means if I different every time. Which means if I was to build a skill specifically for was to build a skill specifically for was to build a skill specifically for Deep Seek Harness, it would probably do Deep Seek Harness, it would probably do Deep Seek Harness, it would probably do a really really good job and it would a really really good job and it would a really really good job and it would also be a lot faster. So, the point I'm also be a lot faster. So, the point I'm also be a lot faster. So, the point I'm trying to make here is I think it's good trying to make here is I think it's good trying to make here is I think it's good that you guys are like listening to my that you guys are like listening to my that you guys are like listening to my advice and you're listening to maybe

So, they work for you specifically. So, they work for you specifically. So, anyways, hope you guys found this one anyways, hope you guys found this one anyways, hope you guys found this one insightful, and if you did, please give insightful, and if you did, please give insightful, and if you did, please give it a like. It helps me out a ton. And as it a like. It helps me out a ton. And as it a like. It helps me out a ton. And as always, I appreciate you guys making it always, I appreciate you guys making it always, I appreciate you guys making it to the end of the video, and I will see to the end of the video, and I will see to the end of the video, and I will see you on the next one. Thanks guys.

Summary

The main theme is a review of the new Deepseek harness, particularly its open-source nature and comparison to Cloud Code. Key subjects discussed include various AI models like Deepseek R1, V4, Flash, Pro, Opus, Fable, and GBT 5.6, along with other harnesses like Codeex and OpenClaw. The practical takeaway is that the Deepseek harness offers greater customization and freedom due to its open-source design, allowing users to integrate different AI models freely, unlike closed-source alternatives.
