As someone who doesn't keep track of the influencer scene at the moment because I am way addicted to building...

You should totally give Claude Code a try. The biggest problem is that it is glaze-optimized, so have to work at getting it to not treat you like the biggest genius of all time. But when you manage to get in a good flow with it, and your project is very predictably searchable, results start to be quite helpful, even if just to unstuck yourself when you're in a rut.

This. Claude Code was the only one to be able to grok my 20 year old C++ codebase so that I could update things deep in it's bowels to make it compile because I neglected it on a thumb drive for 15 years. I had no mental model of what was going on. Claude built one in a few minutes.

I will try it. I did use Cursor agents beforehand (using Sonnet/Opus 4), and my problems were that it was slower than I was (meaning me prompting AI), and was not good enough to leave it unattended.
