Cursor is better than Claude Code. Cancel it. I use the command line. You can also run cloud agents and close the laptop.

Cancel Claude Code and switch to Cursor — Cursor over Claude Code· Editorial poster

Cursor is better than Claude Code. More accurate. Cheaper. Claude Code lost the top spot. Cancel it and switch.

You can use it like Claude Code. Open the folder. Type agent. I use the command line. That is the preference. You can also start a cloud agent and close the laptop. It keeps working.

curl https://cursor.com/install -fsS | bash
# Windows: irm 'https://cursor.com/install?win32=true' | iex
agent login
cd /path/to/your/project
agent

Cloud agent: IDE dropdown, cursor.com/agents, Slack or GitHub @cursor. Then close the laptop. Self-hosted: agent worker start.

Cursor Pro is $20 a month. Pro+ is $60. Ultra is $200. Teams is $40 per user. Annual saves 20%. Claude Pro is €18 a month (€15 if you pay €180 for the year). That is the plan Claude Code sits on. Max starts at €90. One Cursor plan. Not both.
