Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.S-tier for speed. When latency is the product, start here.S-tier for ad-hoc analysis. Makes you feel like a data scientist in 30 seconds.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.
