Cursor

AI-first code editor forked from VS Code.

Honest pros

  • Composer/Agent mode actually edits across files reliably
  • Tab completion is the best in any editor today
  • Supports multiple frontier models without lock-in
  • Familiar VS Code keybindings and extensions work

Real cons

  • $20/mo plan has fast-request quotas that disappear quickly
  • Indexing large monorepos can be slow
  • Privacy mode disables some features
  • Diverges from upstream VS Code releases
