There's Aider, Plandex and Goose, all of which let you chose various providers and models. Aider also has a well known benchmark[0] that you can check out to help select models.

I've only user aider (which I like quite a bit more than cursor) but I'm curious how it compares to plandex and goose.

Hi, creator of Plandex here. In case it's helpful, I posted a comment listing some of the main differences with aider here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43728977

I think the differences between Aider / Plandex are more obvious. However I'd love to see a comparison breakdown between Plandex and Goose which seem to occupy a very similar space.
