> After bringing features of Supermaven to Cursor Tab, we now recommend any existing VS Code users to migrate to Cursor.
Supermaven was acquired by Cursor and sunset after 1 year.

Say more? It's the first time I see Composer 1 being talked about outside of the Cursor press stuff, with high praise no less. What are we talking about? Autocomplete or GPT/Claude contender or...? What makes it so great?
GPT contender. There has been talk on the cursor forums. I think largely people have e slept on coding models and stick with Anthropic thinking it’s the best. Composer fit that niche of extremely fast and smart enough. Sometimes you just want a model that has a near instant response. The new Gemini preview is overtaking my usage of Composer.
If these ai companies had 100x dev output, why would you acquire a company? Why not just show screenshots to your agent and get it to implement everything? Is it market share? Because I don't know who has a bigger user base that cursor.
Also, graphite isn't just "screenshots"; it's a pretty complicated product.

Yeah, hard disagree on that one, based on recent surveys, 80-90% of developers globally use IDEs over CLIs for their day-to-day work. I was pretty worried about Cursor's business until they launched their Composer 1 model, which is fine-tuned to work amazingly well in their IDE. It's significantly faster than using any other model, and it's clearly fine-tuned for the type of work people use Cursor for. They are also…
As the other commenter stated, I don't use CLIs for development. I use VSCode. I'm very pro IDE. I've built up an entire collection of VSCode extensions and workflows for programming, building, customizing build & debugging embedded systems within VSCode. But I still prefer CLI based AI (when talking about an agent to the IDE version). > Composer 1 My bet is their model doesn't realistically compare to any of the fro…
I've been using composer-1 in Cursor for a few weeks and also switching back and forth between it, Gemini Flash 3, Claude Opus 4.5, Claude Sonnet 4.5 and GPT 5.2.
And you're right it's not comparable. It's about the same quality of code output of the aforementioned models but about 4x as fast. Which enables a qualitatively different workflow for me where instead of me spending a bunch of time waiting on the model, the model is waiting on me to catch up with its outputs. After using composer-1, it feels painful to switch back to other models.
I work in a larg(ish) enterprise codebase. I spend a lot of time asking it questions about the codebase and then making small incremental changes. So it works very well for my particular workflow.
Other people use CLI and remote agents and that sort of thing and that's not really my workflow so other models might work better for other people.

What I don't understand why people would go all in on one IDE/editor and refuse to make plugins for others. Whether you prefer the CLI or the integrated experience, only offering it on vscode (and a shitty version of it, as well) is just stupid.
Cursor if I recall actually started life as a VScode plugin. But the plugin API didn’t allow for the type of integration & experiences they wanted. Hit limits quickly and then decided to make a fork.
Good thing that Copilot is not the dominant tool people use these days, which proves that (in some cases) if your product is good enough, you can still win an unfair competition with Microsoft.
If these ai companies had 100x dev output, why would you acquire a company? Why not just show screenshots to your agent and get it to implement everything? Is it market share? Because I don't know who has a bigger user base that cursor.
I'm really used to my Graphite workflow and I can't imagine going without it anymore. An acquisition like this is normally not good news for the product.
We currently let loose Gemini, Cursor Bugbot, Qodo, and even Sentry started reviewing PRs now. My usually prefer Gemini but sometimes other tools catch bugs Gemini doesn't. As someone who has never heard of Graphite, can anyone share their experience comparing it to any of the tools above?
Hi all! Graphite cofounder Greg here - happy to help answer questions. To preempt one: I’ve been asked a few times so far why we decided to join. Personally, I work on Graphite for two reasons. 1) I love working with kind, smart, intense teammates. I want to be surrounded by folks who I look up to and who energize me. 2) I want to build bleeding-edge dev tools that move the whole industry forward. I have so much resp…
