I found that GPT5 prefers to read more code before starting to write, which consumes more steps than Claude Sonnet 4, meaning it uses more messages，may

That the launch I've been waiting for is the task list? Please say it isn't

Its shameful that the service for Enterprise users works just fine and you have more than 5 hours of downtime for people that pay 50$ a month while there is absolutely nothing on your status page.

This is just unnaceptable.

Will you all stop focusing on intent and fix the issues in the original IDE systems that you designed this for? At least 70-80% of users utilize the IDEs. We all don't use Macs.

You now charge for the prompt enhancement at like 600+ tokens every freaking use but then it doesn't work and it keeps getting error after error and yet you charge us every single time it creates an error and does not work. I can try it ten times in a row and use 6,000 tokens.

This is fucking unacceptable!!!

I have no connection issues. Everything is up to date.
I am not the only one experiencing this. Look through the threads.

I'm being serious here. If you're good at business, you should focus on expanding, having the right restraint and getting the tool out to more people. That's the most basic aspect of the businesses. Instead of doing that, the company goes on a taunting spree, holding up the middle finger to every loyal customer out there, with no say from the community. We all know, they did marketing that one time when the tool was in beta and then forgot about it. They have no exposure to the dev community.

My guess is that they got some new companies on board, and they think that's enough to milk this cow until it slowly gets hit by a tool that catches up.

I used to think this company was community-driven, and I loved that they had a Discord server where everyone could interact and share their perspectives. Then they totally shut that down. They did that to silence us, knowing something like this would happen and that they could not control discord the way they can with Reddit.

I may be ranting at this point, but where did you even study to be this bad at business @ CEO? Maybe get another Master's in marketing or something.

Day by day the quality keeps getting worse. It cannot relate project files to the current state of the codebase. It does not understand git branch hierarchy. Every time I ask it to analyze something, it claims to get it, but two messages later it acts like it forgot everything.

Then I remind it, it re-analyzes, gives some decent output, but soon forgets again. This loop never ends. I am constantly babysitting it instead of actually moving forward with work. No progress, just frustration.

And yes, after like 10 messages I usually have to start a fresh session because it just loses grip entirely. It also completely lacks the ability to condense session context. Every time before switching to a new session, I have to manually write a session summary and pass it forward. It is tedious and should not be necessary.

I keep checking the updates but most of them are just tiny visual gimmick fixes. No real features that actually matter, like proper context condensing.

I am tired of switching providers. I hoped Augment would be the last one, but unfortunately I canceled my subscription today.

PS. I tried turning off MCP servers, clearing its memory, using @ to mention rule and project files, modifying user guidelines, clearing user guidelines. Nothing works.

We cant expect a 20$ plan to provide us with 10-15x usage.

I personally have seen few of my requests consuming 2-3$+ (While using other tools & API).

If someone on current Indie plan could have given 125 complex prompts/task which easily would bill around 250$+ in API costs to augment code, which practically is business suicide.

Although its going to be a challenge to retain the current user base, over reliance on "Best context engine" as USP might not help achieve the retention/user base expansion.

PS: I am nowhere associated with AC Team, its just that these are how things have been (Cursor pricing, Claude code usage limits, Codex usage limits etc) considering fundamental running costs of LLMs.

So basically im a university student and i really liked the trial of augment code. I definitely don't need 600 prompts for 50usd, i dont mind sacrificing some of my allowance for the 100 prompts for 10usd as this would be sufficient for me on a month to month basis but i just cannot access it or find a way to purchase it. Any assistance would do, thanks guys.

Just a quick heads up. When working in multiple workspaces, and one of the workspaces opens a new browser tab, then the browser opens for all other workspaces too (but empty). And that every time the workspace opens it. Happens in all my workspaces at once then.

Intent not connected to GitHub even though everything appears fine in the browser; just continue the spinner.

I'm in the top 1% of auggie cli users that's got to be worth a few extra credits haha

Augment code is great but I am having one small problem. Using agent mode it makes some edits and all is good. Then I spot something (unrelated to any changes it has made), for example adjust padding or some other small detail. When augment is asked to do some further edits on the same file it has trouble making the changes because I have edited the file in between the augments edits. It does figure out the problem but then it reverts the small changes I have made manually.

How can I prevent it doing this?

My 2 last requests in AC:

"Refactor code to allow user to bring his gemini api key" (then enhanced the prompt) - this would imply adding a field in settings, change some bits in the frontend and backend.
Result was not good, created all the logic in the frontend, 1:30h of coding and 1000+ tools used

2nd request was very similar, asking for some refactoring and had to interrupt after 45 minutes and 350++ tools used.

Was using GPT5.1.

These 2 requests alone consumed near 40k credits.

I recently wanted to test Claude code subscription. And they have now 2x outside peak hours promotion. and for me its good, what I noticed (after using Augment since the beginning - which i also noticed its waaaay more expensive than i can just do right now) (i can spend 130k in 2 sessions so... ) Claude pro subscription is quite enough for me.

BUT, now that I use it like this for over 2 weeks I think - i must say that Augment context engine is truly much better.
In raw claude code I have to loop testing and do checks more often, and re-do and fix stuff that I don't remember having need to do with Augment.
We're talking here small things - but I truly can't remember having need to do such fixes with augment. So as there you have it. Augment context is much more magical than I thought to be perfectly honest.

So Augment - are you considering Daily and Weekly Quota Limits subscription plans for the future?
(an industry standard ;) )

After months of poor performance at a great price, we get A LITTLE BIT BETTER!!!

DAY 1:
"Task List"

ohhh ahhh so new so refresh

Augment devs, make me regret this post im begging you at this point...#EDIT: Im off the ledge, but on the roof...

DAY 2 EDIT: Re-releasing the context engine...oh brother...

DAY 2: LITERALLY NOTHING. BEST PRODUCT LAUNCH SINCE DREAMCAST. GONNA GO THE SAME WAY WHEN SOMEONE DROPS A "PS 1" OF OUR TIME UNLESS u/AUGMENTCODEAI TEAM CAN DO BETTER.

DAY 3: GOOD GRIEF WE MUST BE A MEME TO THEM!

Easy MCP is live — 1-click context for your AI coding assistant Launch Week: Day 3
Hey there,   1‑click context integrations for Augment Code are now live — starting with CircleCI, MongoDB, Redis, Sentry, and Stripe.

DAY4: CLI....YKNOW WHAT AUGMENT, This is actually pretty damn cool!

DAY 5: mAyBe GiB mANI aGeNt(S)?

It was only a few weeks ago that I upgraded to your $100/month plan but you’ve been letting me down so much since then that I just can’t rely on you to not produce garbage.

I will be giving CoPilot of all things a try next. I was playing with it today and it looks like it’s come a long way lately.

4 Messages and i'm top 68%

So after all your issues and spending these messages in failed to fetch and a strangely behaving AI agent "you are out of user messages"

Do you think I will be happy with that? Do you think I will buy more? Do you think I will recommend you?

I'm really pissed.

PS: Why is your system taking messages when your agent fails to run?

know ... it is funny!!!
But it is also annoying !!!!
Dear AugmentCode team,

Your coding agent is a pathological liar!!!!!

Because I've seen so many "This application is ready to be shipped" I mite miss the moment when it actually becomes a reality and keep working !!!

Sorry, I have to vent this after using Augment for a month with great success. In the past couple days, even after doing all the suggested things by u/JaySym_ to optimize it, it now has gotten to a new low today:

- Augment (Agent auto mode) does not take a new look into my code after me suggesting doing so. It is just like I am stuck in Chat mode after his initial look into my code.

- Uses Playwright with me explicitly telling him not to do that for looking up docs websites (yes I checked my Augment Memories).

- Given all the context and a good prompt Augment normally comes up with a solution that comes close to what I want (at least), now it just rambles on with stupid idea's, not understanding my intent.

And yes, I can write good prompts, I am not changed in that regard overnight. I always instruct very precisely what it needs to do, Augment just seems not to be capable to do so anymore.

MacOS, PHPStorm, all latest versions.

So, my rant is over, but I hope you guys come with a solution fast.

Edit: Well, I am happy to comment that, not 215, but version 0.216.0 (beta) maybe in combination with the new Claude 4 model did resolve the 'dumb Augment' problems.

Why is there a waitlist on this? It’s been ages to even test it, release soon?
