Qwen3.8 27B + DeepSeek Harness takes on Claude Opus 4.6 in Claude Code. I run Qwen 3.8 27B locally on an RTX 5090 using Unsloth Desktop, compare its different reasoning levels through Tetris coding tests, and then connect the same local AI model to DeepSeek Harness for agentic coding. For the final challenge, Qwen3.8 27B and Opus 4.6 receive the same massive prompt to build a playable Minecraft clone. In my testing, this small 27B local LLM somehow produced the stronger result.
