What was done
Claude Code tested 18 new open models in two weeks for Siim Tolk, at night, and none took over from the model he uses. He runs a personal Hermes assistant on a home server. He ticks which ones get downloaded, and at breakfast the verdict arrives on WhatsApp. The agent never switches models itself. He writes that some of the limits hold only as far as the agent follows its instructions.
