I’ve been doing the same with GPT-OSS-120B and have been impressed.

Only gotcha is Claude code expects a 200k context window while that model max supports 130k or so. I have to do a /compress when it gets close. I’ll have to see if there is a way to set the max context window in CC.

Been pretty happy with the results so far as long as I keep the tasks small and self contained.

I've been making use of gpt-oss-120b extensively for a range of projects, commercial and price, because providers on OpenRouter make it essentially free and instant, and it's roughly as capable at o4-mini was in my experience.

That said, I'm a little surprised to hear you're having great success with it as a coding agent. It's "obviously" worse than the frontier models, and even they can making blindly dumb decisions pretty regularly. Maybe I should give it a shot.
