A bit late to the party, but I started using Claude Code about three weeks ago and I'm loving it. I wrote a Gemini CLI MCP server wrapper and added it as an MCP to Claude Code so Claude Sonnet 4 and Gemini 2.5 models can be friends and collaborate on coding tasks/reviews and verify each other's generated code https://github.com/centminmod/gemini-cli-mcp-server 
I really hope I get to the point I can make use of that.Tempted to upgrade from Claude Pro to Max plan as well.Updated to Claude Max just now

I'm doing the same, got an MCP server set up for Gemini (but I've been using Gemini CLI as well), and OpenAI so it can use the recently discounted O3 model as well along with the image models. I "almost" hit the limit on the Max Plan today, was at 11:40am, and it would have reset at 12pm, so only 20 minutes.Tempted to upgrade from Claude Pro to Max plan as well.Updated to Claude Max just now

Yeah, using Gemini CLI and just installed OpenCode to see what the fuss is about - will see about creating MCP servers for Claude and OpenCode to access other LLM models in other MCP client supported apps
20 mins, nice! Good to know I won't have to wait that long
Haven't used Opus 4 much yet, but you can see when I upgraded to Claude Max today with a bit of Opus 4 usage
Not really when you actually use the product enough to get the ROI for it.
Yes, I was resisting for a while, but I kept running into usage limits, especially when combining Claude and Gemini 2.5 via MCP, which further increased the usage. But the subscription works out well given the fixed cost versus paying Claude's per-token costs via their API. Just look at my above ccusage prior to July 4th, already paid for itself on Claude Pro $20/month + GST. Even paid for itself in value compared to Claude Max $100/month plan as well
Yeah. I am going to consolidate and review my hosting costs and server deals to see if I can fit the Claude Max $100 + $10 GST budget. Also been training Claude Code on Xenforo and Centmin Mod LEMP stack data for future projects/tools/features
Preparing Centmin Mod to also be able to handle local server AI/LLM software/tech stacks for myself and users
I've been using it to help build out ideas I've had and wanted to implement for ages. Started building out a dashboard yesterday for central monitoring of my Jetbackup jobs so I can monitor them all, see what's happening, and have intelligent scheduling so I don't have clashes backing up multiple servers to the same location at the same time.Yes, I was resisting for a while, but I kept running into usage limits, especially when combining Claude and Gemini 2.5 via MCP, which further increased the usage.

Yup, same here new tools for me and also revisiting existing tools for adding features or improvements. All my code gets verified via several LLM models in the past did that manually, but now with Gemini CLI MCP server, can automate that part (i.e. Claude hooks https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/hooks + MCP)
