Kai's verdictA-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.A-tier for sales teams. B-tier for solo users.S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
