I tried it with cursor-agent, their cli - and it generated better code than expected. YMMV. It was more thoughtful and strategic than the other frontier models.
interesting but i have thought about it. rarely is ours as well. All my code is original but based on my past experiences from learning, thinking about it, and improving it based on new knowledge i know. my 2cents.
This is from their claude-code guide: "Claude Code is intentionally low-level and unopinionated, providing close to raw model access without forcing specific workflows. This design philosophy creates a flexible, customizable, scriptable, and safe power tool. While powerful, this flexibility presents a learning curve for engineers new to agentic coding tools—at least until they develop their own best practices". The agent is what makes the claud-code as good as it is. By not using it, you are using the model that is a hit or miss on several aspects a programmer would need.
Been using it for a couple days - The integration fixed the gap that required me to open the files for viewing updates, and changes made in real-time as compared to the terminal mode, which did things behind the scenes, and you had no idea what its doing. the series of nonsensical (but funny) names (Pondering, Twerking, Juggling, etc.) it gives are not useful after its initial fancy wears off..
Hmm...It seems that humans should be less interested in such things? Making Makefiles readable by human is less needed in the context of LLMs needs to know about it more than us no?
