You can use your claude subscription just fine in open harnesses!

I make one (https://github.com/juggler-ai/juggler) and it'll auto-detect and use your claude CLI. I use that claude plan for 90% of my work, plus a bit of GPT, I just prefer to do it inside a nicer, less locked-in environment than claude.

There's really no moat around proprietary closed harnesses, it's trivial to jump between them, but people need to be aware that it's possible!

Locked in? I routinely switch between claude and codex, same codebases, same skills, and even shared "memories" with maybe 5 minute effort to set it up. There is no lock in whatsoever.

it goes against anthropic‘s terms of service, and people have had their Claude accounts banned for doing exactly this.
