Forget Roo, Cline, Windsurf, Cursor. Augment Code keeps raising the bar. Tried it on a fun project I hadn’t touched in months. Instead of random refactors, it rebuilt the architecture coherently, understanding the whole codebase → structure, dependencies + Git history. And where tools like Cursor often struggle with... large repos or lose track of cross-file relationships... Augment mapped everything. Instantly 🤯 Once the full context is loaded, you can move ridiculously fast: → Restructure / rename components across repos → Swap between GPT-5, Claude Sonnet 4 / 4.5, and Claude Haiku via their Model Picker → Offload builds, tests, deploys to Remote Agents A few extras I really loved: → I could stay in VS Code, JetBrains IDEs... even Vim, which is v. cool! → If you prefer the terminal, the Auggie CLI now gives you the same experience headless. → It also handled a bunch of massive repos I threw at it smoothly, while Cursor struggled to even index them! → It always previews planned refactors before running them 🫶 ____ You can give Augment Code a try here → Big thx to the Augment Code team for partnering with me on this post, I learned a ton along the way! 🙏show more

Nothing beats Augment Code answering questions about large codebases. It's a free extension (works in VSCode, JetBrains, and NeoVim), and has a community edition you can run for free forever. Try this experiment: 1. Download any large open-source project from GitHub 2. Augment will index the code 3. Start asking questions about the codebase 4. Do the same using any other coding agent 5. Compare the speed and the depth of the answers you get If you have a small codebase, the differences with other coding agents won't be obvious, but if you are working on a large project, things will click immediately. Suggestion: download the Keras repository (~180,000 lines of code). I know the library well, and the answers I got from Augment were pretty impressive. By the way, Augment is a fully-fledged AI coding assistant. You can use its agent in every imaginable way: • To implement brand new functionality • To make quick edits to your code • To refactor existing functionality • To generate unit tests • To generate documentation • To handle GitHub—pull requests, commits, branching, etc My favorite feature is their "Next Edit" functionality: 1. You edit the code 2. Augment analyzes the change (across the entire codebase!) 3. Augment determines the ripple effects of that change 4. Augment suggests everything you need to update Here is a link to the tool: Thanks to the team at Augment Code for partnering with me on this post.

The #1 problem with coding agents right now: Ask them to solve one problem, and they will make 10 other changes you didn't want. This happens to me every day. It happens to everyone I talk to as well. We have a solution for this now. The team Augment Code released a "Task List" feature for their coding assistant that solves this problem. Augment Code is partnering with me on this post. In case you haven't used them before: • Augment Code is a fully-fledged coding assistant • Their specialty are large projects • Fastest coding indexing I've seen • Has a free forever community edition Now, you can ask their coding agent to generate a Task List before doing anything. This will give you a plan you can review, edit, and augment if you need to. You can export this plan, load it on a different session, or even share it across projects. It makes a huge difference: The task list constrains the agent so you won't get any "unintended" changes anymore. It also puts you in control of everything the agent does. Check the video to see the agent working through a task list. You can also try this 100% free: (By the way, they also have support for remote agents. You can basically have those agents write your code while you are sleeping.)

Reviewing AI-generated code is the new bottleneck. Writing code was slow before. Now, in a few minutes, you can generate virtually unlimited lines of code using AI. But developers are now spending 70% of their time checking that code. That's the new bottleneck. I've been using Cline, and they have a feature that actually helps with this: You can click a button and have Cline generate an inline explanation for every single line of AI-generated code. Take a look at the attached video. What it does: 1. You can read the code and the explanation together 2. You don't lose context while reviewing code 3. You understand the "why" behind each change And here is the best part: It works on any git diff. You can use it to review PRs, understand commits from other people, or catch up on a codebase you haven't touched in a while.

$I just compared Claude Code vs Codex vs Cursor CLI The task was to build a Next.js app with Tailwind 4 and shadcn components to collect customer feedback and showcase it with a widget. I gave all three the same prompt and let them go for 30 minutes to see what they came up with. Claude Code with Opus 4.1 Even though I told it to set up the app in the existing project folder, it tried to create a directory for it. After I interrupted and told it not to do that, it built a demo form and landing page with no errors. I had to ask it to make the demo interactive so users could submit a testimonial and preview it. The landing page looked like AI and was pretty basic, but it worked and it was done in a fraction of the time of the others. Total tokens used: 33k Codex with GPT-5 At the end of the 30 minutes I just could not get Codex to produce a working app. It got stuck in a loop of not being able to set up Tailwind 4 and despite many, MANY, attempts, I ended up with a "failed to compile" error. Total tokens used: 102k Cursor Agent with GPT-5 This was the slowest agent by far and a couple of times I actually thought it got stuck in a loop and was close to Ctrl+C'ing to cancel it. The TUI is really nice though, especially how it shows diffs and it did eventually build a working app (after one or two slight errors that needed fixing) The demo was interactive and it had a very minimal design that looked bare but also a lot less like an "AI generated" app than the Opus 4.1 design. It also wasn't too chatty and just did what it needed to do! Code quality was on a par with Opus 4.1, but it did use 5.5x as many tokens to get there. Still cheaper than Opus on a direct comparison but not when you factor in a Claude Code Max subscription. Total tokens: 188k I'll be able to do a proper comparison and record some videos when I'm back from holiday but for now, Opus is still the more capable model out of the box and Claude Code is the more complete CLI product. It will be interesting to see how Cursor evolve their CLI though with commands and subagents because I think with GPT-5 they have a real shot at providing competition for Claude Code if they can optimise output to get similar quality with less tokens. Jump to 0:40 in the video to see the two apps. Which do you think is which? ;)$

This is incredibly useful for those using Claude Code! I have two computers, and sharing your Claude Code sessions is almost impossible without this. I often start working on something on my desktop, and then want to continue working on the same session (same context, conversation, etc.) on my laptop. The folks at Depot built an integration that solves this problem: You can now start a session on one computer and resume it anywhere else in the world! You can even share it with other team members so they can also contribute to it. Here is an article showing you how the Depot team uses this feature with Claude Code to automate their GitHub Actions Runner updates: Thanks to the team for the effort in building this integration and collaborating with me on this post.

Better Cursor alternative? I've been playing with the new AI IDE Windsurf launched by Codeium past few days, and the result was impressive, particularly: 1. Code base understanding: One thing Windsurf did really well is its understanding of the whole code base & dependencies; This led to a big difference in terms of final code quality 2. Context aware: It actually knows everything I did in the editor, e.g. it automatically knows code edits I made without me prompt it; 3. Reflection: I noticed Windsurf has been finetuned to reflect and try to iterate/improve code it generated autonomously; This was a magic moment for me .... I shared key highlights i had and showcase my process of building a PDF converter product using windsurf 0:00 Platform overview 6:21 How does context aware engine works 10:45 Case study: Build PDF converter Sass ---- If you have any further question or want to get deep dive into more AI coding, you can join my community where I post tips weekly:

Write 100x better code using AI (for free!) Install the Codacy extension (VSCode, Cursor, WindSurf). This will install an MCP Server locally on your computer. Your coding copilot will use this server with the Codacy CLI to check every line of code it generates. The way this works is pretty awesome (assuming you are using Cursor): 1. You ask Cursor to generate some code 2. Cursor writes the code 3. Cursor then calls Codacy's MCP Server to check it 4. The MCP Server will use the Codacy CLI to find any issues 5. Cursor will fix the issues and call the MCP server again 6. When the code passes all checks, you are done Level of effort on your side: literally zero! Code quality and security because of this: 100x better! Codacy has been doing this for a long, long time, and their Guardrails MCP Server checks for a lot of potential issues: • Security issues • Quality standards • Pattern violations • Linting issues You can see more information about the extension here: I recorded a quick video to show you how it works. Thanks to the Codacy team for helping me set up everything, answering my 1,000 questions, and collaborating with me on this post.

I got curious how compaction works as a PM, so I did some brain surgery on Claude Code: (Anthropic's been doing really interesting work on context editing - they showed Claude Opus playing Settlers of Catan for 75+ minutes in a single thread by constantly editing the context instead of starting fresh. When I saw that Claude Code has a compaction command with optional custom instructions, I wanted to understand what's actually happening.) Abhishek and Aman Khan gave me the key tip: Claude Code stores all your conversation history as text files on your computer. Open a new directory and give Claude Code a task. Here's how to watch compaction happening: 1. Go to your user's root directory 2. Press Command+Shift+Period (Mac) to show hidden folders 3. Navigate to ~/.claude/projects/ 4. Find your project folder and use Cursor/VSCode to open it (there's a reason) 5. Install the JSONL Gazelle plugin (open source, thank you Gabor Cselle!) 6. Open the most recent JSONL file - each row is a message in your conversation 7. Run the compact command in Claude Code with custom instructions 8. Watch what happens in the file What I learned: When you compact, Claude Code doesn't just summarize and delete everything. It creates a "compact boundary" in the conversation file, writes a summary of what happened before, but keeps the full original conversation (!!!!) The new thread can still retrieve any details from before compaction if needed. That is so damn cool. Why this matters: What you're getting in Claude Code is similar to what Anthropic ships in their developer SDK - so inspecting your daily tools is how you build real product intuition. The best way to understand AI systems is to open them up and look inside. Everything is text files.

How Base44 Beats Cursor: "I don't think you will want to see the code. Nowadays even the most technical users would prefer building inside Base44 instead of Cursor. They do not want to set up servers and databases and see the code and write tests and navigate through the files etc. This portion of software that you can build in Base44 is going to grow. If you can build it inside Base44, you'd prefer to do that than Cursor." Do you agree, people "will not want to see the code" Anton Osika Scott Wu GREG ISENBERG Theo - t3.gg
