Who can build Discord fastest?
Ten popular coding models in the three most-used harnesses each build a Discord clone, ticket by ticket, out of the box. Who did it fastest, and where does the time go?
No more best practices.No more cargo culting.No more “trust me, I’ve been doing this for 25 years.”Just what works, backed by experiments.

I’m Lee Byrd. I’ve been a professional programmer for 25 years, building products for tiny startups up to Fortune 500 companies. I can’t tell you how to get rich, but I can tell you a lot about building software at any scale. Now, with coding agents, we can finally run the experiments.
And I have nothing to sell you.

Eight models in three harnesses built the same app. They read files, change code, run commands and test in very different ways.
