The editor treats edits from Claude Code as a first class citizen. You can easily review, approve, rollback, etc. Claude's changes in a curated experience that is much faster than digging around in diffs or needing to approve each edit

This is the only correct answer. I interviewed dozens of people this way over more than a decade. Hiring was never difficult to get right. Bonus: we self-selected for people who don’t like to pair. We paired 100% of the time.
