Have you (or anyone) swapped on Cursor with Anthropic API Key?
For coding assistant, it's on my to do list to try. Cursor needs some serious work on model selection clarity though so I keep putting off.
- freediver 2y agoI did it (fairly simple really) but found most of my (unsophisticated) coding these days to go through Aider [1] paired with Sonnet, for UX reasons mostly. It is easier to just prompt over the entire codebase, vs Cursor way of working with text selections. [1] https://aider.chat https://aider.chat
- kevinbluer 2y agoI believe Cursor allows for prompting over the entire codebase too: https://docs.cursor.com/chat/codebase https://docs.cursor.com/chat/codebase
- freediver 2y agoThat is chatting, but it will not change the code.
- lifty 2y agoThanks for this suggestion. If anyone has other suggestions for working with large code context windows and changing code workflows, I would love to hear about them.
- asselinpaul 2y agocomposer within cursor (in beta) is worth a look: https://x.com/shaoruu/status/1812412514350858634 https://x.com/shaoruu/status/1812412514350858634
- stavros 2y agoAider with Sonnet is so much better than with GPT. I made a mobile app over the weekend (never having touched mobile development before), and with GPT it was a slog, as it kept making mistakes. Sonnet was much, much better.
- com2kid 2y agoOne big advantage Claude artifacts have is that they maintain conversation context, versus when I am working with Cursor I have to basically repeat a bunch of information for each prompt, there is no continuity between requests for code edits. If Cursor fixed that, the user experience would become a lot better.
