How is Devin different from cursor?
I recently used cursor and it has felt very capable in implementing tasks across files. I get that cursor is an IDE but it's ai functionality feels very agentic.. where do you draw the line?
- Xmd5a 2y agoI had to look up MCST: it means Model-Centric Software Tools, as opposed to autonomous agents. Devin is closer to a long-running process that you can interact with as it is processing tasks, whereas Cursor is closer to a function call: once you've made the call, the only think you can do is wait for the result.

- jondwillis 2y agoCursor Composer (both "normal" and "agent" mode) fit the colloquial definition of agent, for sure.
