Kai's verdictS-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend.
