DeepSeek Harness + V4 Flash = The END of Claude Code?

From the creator

DeepSeek just released their own coding agent — the DeepSeek Harness — and I gave it a full website to build. It cost me 10 cents. 19,707,283 tokens. 159 API requests. 100% cache hit rate. $0.10. And what came out was not a slop site. It generated a hand-built vector illustration of a Rolls-Royce, in a navy and gold luxury palette, on a chauffeur hire site that looks like an agency charged five figures for it.

It cost $0.86 and produced an SVG that looked like a melted slug with two floating rings for wheels. The cheap model won. It wasn't close. GET IT RUNNING IN 10 SECONDS npx @deepseek-ai/dsh web Or clone it: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness THE RUN • Model: DeepSeek-V4-Flash on High • 19,707,283 tokens • 159 API requests • 4 turns, 161 steps • LLM time 23m57s, tool calls 1m47s • TTFT 1.9s avg, 142 tokens/sec • Cache hit rate: 100% • Total cost: $0.10 WHY THE CACHE RATE MATTERS 100% cache hit is the whole story. That's what turns 19.7 million tokens into ten cents. Most agents burn your budget re-reading the same context on every turn — this one doesn't. 🚀 SPONSOR — Harbor SEO Once your site is live it needs content.
