Claude Code finally has a serious competitor.
Not sure. So far Reddit seems largely negative on Cursor CLI + GPT-5

#52At this point, there are more AI coding agents announced every week than Javascript frameworks, but to be honest, I'm here for it.
Think how many JavaScript frameworks can be vibe coded now!
The concept of JS framework which allows you to rapidly develop an app has the same underlying vibe as coding agent

#53I wonder when all of them will adopt AGENT.md and stop using gemini.md/claude.md/crush.md/summary.md/qwen.md https://agent.md [redirect -> https://ampcode.com/AGENT.md ] https://agent-rules.org
When they stop getting desperate for differentiation by spamming their brand advertising in your repo against your will.
Claude Code likes to add "attribution" in commit messages, which is just pure spam.

Yep, that's a peeve of mine. I've resorted to using AGENT.md, and aliasing Claude, Gemini, etc to a command that calls them with an initial instruction to read that file. But of course they will forget after some time.
The whole agentic coding via CLI experience could be much improved by:
- Making it easy to see what command I last issued, without having to scroll up through reams of output hunting for context - Making it easy to spin up a proper sandbox to run sessions unattended - Etc.
Maybe for code generation, what we actually need is a code generator that is itself deterministic but uses AI, instead of AI that does code generation.
Re: Cursor CLI
#56With all the frontier labs competing in this space now, and them letting you use your consumer subscription through the CLI, I don’t understand how the Cursor products will survive. Why pay an extra $X/mo when I can get this functionality included in the $Y/mo I’m already paying OAI/Anthropic/GOOG?
Because you can always use the best model. Yesterday is was Claude Opus 4.1, today it's GPT-5. If you just were paying Anthropic you will be stuck with Claude.

Thank you so much for this!

Ironically, LLMs might make it very hard for new frameworks to gain popularity since they are trained on the popular ones.

#60It seems they haven’t implemented MCP client features in Cursor CLI yet
