I guess solution had not yet appeared in training set.
Let them taste their own medicine. :)
I would not understimate what folks in 70s had done.
Same story. The model works perfectly when called directly, but the agent integration doesn't actually execute the tools. It generates things like:
<tools> {"name": "read_files", ...} </tools>
as plain text and then just sits there until I tell it to "do it" again. It repeats the exact same fake tool call.
So instead of:
Qwen → tool call → grep/find/read → result → Qwen
I get:
Qwen → pretend tool call → nothing happens → repeat.

Update: after actually trying Aider, I don't understand the point of it.
It feels like browser AI chat moved into a terminal, except now it's on your own dime, with no freemium. Ask it `find test_main location` and it won't actually run `find` and inspect the repo. It tells you it can't access files you haven't explicitly added.
That's basically browser chat wrapped in a terminal with a few pre-existing skills.
Unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. This happened on Fedora.
Instead of responding to simple prompts, it got stuck in what appeared to be an infinite loop producing nonsense like:
> Objection > work state > active > blocked > next move...
Even the response-copying functionality didn't work, so I couldn't easily copy the output. (Using Terminator Terminal Emulator)
And no, the model itself isn't the problem. I manually called the exact same llama.cpp OpenAI-compatible endpoint with `reply with Hi`, and it correctly replied `Hi`.
I also checked the OpenCode configuration and corrected the model ID to exactly match what the OpenAI-compatible `/v1/models` endpoint reports. Same result: endless nonsense.
So something in the OpenCode integration/agent prompting is clearly going wrong in this setup.
And please don't tell me to "read the docs." I've never read a single line of Claude Code documentation and have been using Claude Code without issues for several months. If Claude can make the experience that seamless, I'd expect a project with 200k stars to provide at least a usable experience.
Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I wasted ~20 minutes trying to get a basic setup working.
Posting this in the hope it saves someone else 20 minutes.
