I just did this five minutes ago. Started a task with Kimi K3, noticed cost going up, switched to Minimax M3 continuing from the same context. Really easy to do with Crush/OpenCode.
It works quite well most of the time. For very deeply technical tasks, where exploration involves multiple agents (and blowing up context limits a few times), I'll have a plan written down to disk that will be much longer than 2k tokens.
Wow. Someone using Crush in the wild. What do you think of it? I'm having trouble switching to it because the rest work fine, but would love to actually adopt it.
It has the most user-friendly UI of them all, a really usable scroll view. Automatically picks up LSPs. Has a well maintained provider registry. Looks nice and runs fast.
The main downside is that subagents cannot have edit tools, which kills any agent orchestration possibilities. I use it for most one-shot / single task prompts using open models.
