I also tried to go as hard as I could with agents and I ran into a ton of problems. The core issue I found is that inferring "intent" from existing code is hard and it makes errors that accumulate and build up. This ends up wrecking the software project by adding tons of complexity and duplicate ways of doing things and changing assumptions depending on which part of the code base you are in.
I think that the solution is to somehow move towards an "intent" layer that sits above the code.
I still use Cursor, but I use AI judiciously so that I don't wreck the project and it is only acts as an aid.
