Kai's verdictA-tier in its niche. The only one that actually gets emotion right.A-tier. Best for teaching a kid to code in 2026.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.
