lol bold claim initially for not using the primary competitor in months. I try to use all 3 (Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI); there are tradeoffs between all 3

Read my reply to sibling comment. To my knowledge, Claude Code is at most marginally better than Cursor, and it's mostly the model that matters. Not saying there is no room for improvement on the tooling side, but no one seems to have come up with anything so far. Let me know which killer features Claude Code has, I would be happy to learn.

it’s the “agentic harness” — they have shipped tons of great features for the DevEx, but it’s the combination of better models (Sonnet 4.5 1M, now Opus 4.5) and the “prompting”/harness that improves how it actually performs

again I’m not saying Codex is worse, they’re just different and claiming the only one you actively use is the best is a stretch

edit: also FWIW, I initially dismissed Claude Code at launch, then loved Codex when it released. never really liked Cursor. now I primarily use Claude Code given I found Codex slow and less “reliable” in a sense, but I try to try all 3 and keep up with the changes (it is hard)

I am testing all models in Cursor.

I also don't actually like Cursor. It's a VSCode fork, and a mediocre harness. I am only using it because my company refuses to buy anything else, because Cursor has all models, and it appears to them that it's not worth having anything else.

you conveniently ignored the most important part of my comment :)

btw you started this thread with pure vibes, no evidence:

> I can confirm GPT 5.2 is better than Gemini and Claude. GPT 5.2 Codex is probably even better.

I’m saying you’re wrong. N=2, 1 against 1, one of us is making a much less bold claim

		You do not seem to be able to tell me anything substantial, i.e. specifically how Claude Code is a better harness than Cursor. > “prompting”/harness that improves how it actually performs Is an abstract statement without any meaningful details.
