Claude Code is the fastest agent framework but costs nearly three times more than the cheapest rival

Composio tested Deepseek V4 Flash across four agent frameworks on 30 real-world tasks. Success rates were mostly similar, but costs varied by nearly 3x: OpenCode came in cheapest at $0.073 per task, while Claude Code cost $0.195 despite using the fewest tool calls and output tokens. The choice of framework is mainly a question of price and speed.
