Cursor’s debug mode is arguably its best feature (davidgomes.com)

Cursor, now thats a name I've not heard in a long time

Would tend do disagree. Debug is arguably the most important skill to have and nurture right now (and that allows you to keep a strong mental model), and LLMs are not yet that good at it

the author is an employee of Cursor/Anysphere. i think this should've been declared at the start of the article. it's always like this.

For me Cursor is unbeatable in going from 0 to fixing an issue. Claude code is great but the cold start problem of getting all the context first sometimes is annoying. I find cursor is a good choice in combination with other tools.

My 2 cents: cursor could also reproduce bugs leveraging things like playwright and other tools. That closes the loop somewhat.

I can have trace and debug-level log lines using any assistant, though. Even works with humans!
