Can’t you send the same spec through cursor? Am I missing something there?


Yes certainly. I’m sure Cursor would do a good job.

That said, I think that the differing UIs of Cursor (in the IDE) and Claude (in the CLI) fundamentally change how you approach problems with them.

Cursor is “too available”. It’s right there and you can be lazy and just ask it anything.

Claude nudges you to think more deeply and construct longer prompts before engaging with it.

That my experience anyway


Fun fact: there is a Cursor CLI now
