You’re not missing much. I used Cursor for the second half of last year. If you’re hand-editing code, its autocomplete is super nice, basically like reading your mind. But it turns out the people who say we’re moving to a world where programming is automated are pretty much right. I switched to Claude Code about three weeks ago and haven’t looked back. Being CLI-first is just so much more powerful than IDE-first, because tons of work that isn’t just coding happens there. I use the VSCode extension in maybe 10% of my sessions when I want targeted edits. So having a good autocomplete story like Cursor is either not useful, or anti-useful because it keeps you from getting your hands off the code.
