Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier for creators training custom looks. B-tier for general use.S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend.S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.
