For a certain-size project it really is not.

Single files in our codebase already blow the Copilot query token limit.

Great, Anthropic taught Claude to grep. On our project, it's still useless because it can't use the semantic search in the IDE.

Zed's ACP seems to be a good solution to this - when using it, claude code has access to the IDE's diagnostics and tools, just like the human operator. https://zed.dev/acp

This tells more about your code quality that about copilot, and I'm not a fan of copilot

I disagree.

Sure, it's a dumpster fire. But human engineers work on it just fine without investing man-decades into refactoring it into some shrine to the software engineer's craft.

The whole point of AI, in our parent company's eyes, is for no one to mention "code quality" as something impeding the delivery of features, yesterday, ever.
