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.A-tier for non-native English speakers. B-tier if your English is already strong — Claude does better with tone.A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.
