DeepSeek Just Built the Next Generation of Coding Agents

From the creator

DeepSeek just released the next generation of coding agent harnesses, fully open source and already past 165,000+ GitHub stars in under a week. I wanted to know one thing: could this replace Claude Code or Pi as my daily driver, calling both out as subagents to actually do the work? So I tried it to find out! There are also a lot of cool features and plugins to build your own solution too which we cover in the video. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks to QVAC by Tether for sponsoring this video - go give them a star on GitHub!
