Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. Best free agentic option in VS Code. Use with Claude for best results.S-tier all-rounder. If you want one tool that does everything okay-to-great, this is it.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
