This is the thing I don’t understand about businesses like Cursor. They take two other companies products (Claude and VS Code) and smash them together and sell the result at a loss. How is that much of a business when basically what you’ve got is something that could have been a VsCode plugin.
It’s something that literally exists as a first-party plugin for VSCode. The Copilot Chat extension has an Agent mode for vibe coding for half the price of Cursor.
Copilot has Copilot coding agent too (as distinct from Agent mode in Copilot Chat. Yes, they’re different things and yes, I had to look up what the difference was)
