 | Just browsing this page and was shocked to see this. - 6 out of the top 10 coding agent apps are non-coding. - Opencode is not even top 10 I know some folks use Hermes for coding. Would be happy to be corrected if hermes and openclaw have become coding replacements for opencode. [link] [comments] |

Key Points
- An OpenRouter ranking screenshot suggests that the majority of token usage comes from non-coding applications rather than coding-focused ones.
- Of the top 10 coding agent apps shown, 6 are described as not being truly coding-centric, implying a potential mismatch between app labels and actual usage.
- The commenter notes that Opencode is not even in the top 10, which further challenges assumptions about what dominates token consumption.
- The discussion invites clarification about whether other tools (e.g., Hermes, OpenClaw) have replaced Opencode specifically for coding use cases.
