It’s by far the best model for coding i have ever used. Nothing else comes close to both its accuracy AND its phenomenal speed. It really makes a big difference because now I get in uninterrupted flow state because I don’t have to wait so long in-between. Coding got so addictive now; crazy! Thank you. Looking forward to composer-2!
I thought I am the only noticing how amazing is composer.
For initial bigger changes I use Opus 4.5 for planing, but then switch to composer-1 for execution and additional itterations and it’s the first time I felt like I am really Live Coding with AI.
For me small incremental changes with composer-1 feels fast and amazing, suitable for my workflow, as at the end of the day I like the result to be 99% the way I would do it, and to have 100% a mental model of the code, just with composer-1 I work literraly up to 5x faster.
Currently I work at 3 real world big projects for 3 different clients and feels great.
I do have 15 years of freelancing behind which I think it helps too. Nonetheless composer-1 is so great, cannot wait for something like composer-1.5 or composer-2, I hope they will continue developing it.
Honestly I just want to throw my hat in here to say that my level of excitement for Composer 1.5 or Composer 2 is very high. And if it can compete on cost with Gemini 3 Flash, I’ll be blown away.
I used it today to delete a feature it is EXTREMELY fast again! Lots of improvements for grepping and deleting files, it deletes them not one by one but multiple I think.
Yeah the speed is incredible. It is my go-to model and an incredible workhorse. The speed at which it can edit files and read files is unbelievable. It edits files so quickly that it feels essentially parallel and is so fast that cursor can’t even render the diffs quick enough haha (good problem to have)
