Kai's verdict	A-tier. Best free agentic option in VS Code. Use with Claude for best results.	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	S-tier for realtime. If latency matters more than voice catalog, start here.	A-tier. Best of a boring category. Use it for first drafts, then edit in Keynote if high-stakes.
