Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class.
