replyAre you saying scripts from agents are deterministic? :)
replyWhy don't you try to dispove me. Yes, they are _more_ deterministic than tool calls and consume less tokens.
replyThere is nothing to disprove as you don't understand what does a word mean. Deterministic is not a spectrum, they can either be deterministic or not. In both cases, they are not.
replyOh, I'm so sorry I touched your paper feelings.
replyHow dared I to imply that some LLM output is more deterministic than the other, your LLM majesty. Shame on me and my entire family! For generations to come!
So sorry I implied that the code that doesn't work and has to be fixed later is deterministic in its execution and can be reused later instead of being re-generated from scratch!
Will I ever wash it off my name, your grace?
They're talking about writing a file with a harness-native Edit tool. They're saying the agents aren't doing that, but are using ad-hoc methods of writing the files. (My agents seem to prefer see these days.)
replyWhy do you think your agents prefer to create scripts instead of doing tool calls these days?
replyI wonder, is it easier to modify a script that agent wrote before to satisfy your prompt, or is it easier to write a new one from scratch each time a retry happens?
Are input tokens more expensive than output tokens?
My god. They are not reusing the scripts. They are adhoc, inline Python scripts just used to make a single edit. You seem to fundamentally not understand what everyone else is talking about
