I think I like coding models that know a lot about the world. They can disambiguate my requirements and build better products.

I generally prefer a coding model that can google for the docs, but separate models for /plan and /build is also a thing.

I had not considered that, seems like a great solution for local models that may be more resource-constrained.

You can configure aider that way. You get three, in fact: an architect model, a code editor model, and a quick model for things like commit messages. Although I'm not sure if it's got doc searching capabilities.
