Kai's verdictS-tier infrastructure. The one platform every AI dev eventually uses.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for aesthetics. If you care how it looks more than how it's made, this wins.S-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing.
