Hey I'm Jeff (one of the co-founders). That's fair feedback. We wrestled a lot with whether to support BYOA or open source the harness. Ultimately there was no configuration with off the shelf models that we were happy with performance-wise. A lot of the eng work that went into this came tuning custom agents from large datasets to do the "grunt work" like element grounding and visual understanding. Plugging in vanilla GPT6.1 Sol for every task into our harness just doesn't yield a pareto optimal result that makes sense as a standalone product (you are better off asking codex to test).
That doesn't mean we won't eventually support byok, especially as OSS models catch up! We have our finger on the trigger there.
