Weaknesses	Less agentic than Cursor/Claude Code Model quality varies	Expensive for just notes Smaller community than Obsidian	Reasoning quality varies by mode Can be verbose Confabulates on niche facts	Harder to use than hosted tools Needs infra
Kai's verdict	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this.	S-tier all-rounder. If you want one tool that does everything okay-to-great, this is it.	A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.
