Thanks your your feedback.

I just retried Zed and yeah, it's much much better than last time I gave it a shot!!!

I turned on the review stuff, and yeah I can do more or less what I could in Cursor. Check something. Do a quick inline promtp for the three lines I dislike and move on.

And of course the editor is so much nimbler/nicer.

No plan mode, but for big edits I'd probably use codex or something just like you. If you have any advice for integrating for that flow, I'll take them.

I guess whatever advantage cursor has, it will die once "Sol" is no longer integrated, as it was my favorite heavy work model. But I sure will miss the snappy auto/composer stack of Cursor.

If you integrate Zed with Claude Code through ACP you get plan mode (and some other stuff like memory)

Cursor's Grok models are a powerhouse without much of a performance hit.
