working with cursor was like working with a really good junior dev

working with claude code is like working with a really good mid (2-3y of experience) dev. 

now even mid-tier devs are doomed.

mostly reading and building.

cursor is just an IDE. We're comparing Claude's Sonnet 4 inside an IDE to a CLI. Even though claude code is likely using a similar model, Its tooling and resource constraints make it a better agent.

That's what I mean by custom tooling and constraints; that makes the agent behave differently.

cursor has had an agentic mode for a while now. I'm comparing apples to apples here.
