change to VSCODE to see if its any good now with the new functions and this happend…
its definitely different the how cursors seems to handle claude 3.7 for me .
i have a very large codebase that im working on . over 5000+ files with different parts of projects that vaglue use the same name with a slicht prefix difference like products_history
and ec_product_history
and it a lot of the time start using routes and models from another part of the codebase and messing things up big time. i could control it for some time. but then it just got a (cursor) reset lets just name it like that. and it starting to go off in a whole different direction. and messing sht up.
now i tried vscode and indeed its way more focused. at least for me it fixed an error that i was working on with cursor for 2 days reverting half a day sometimes . to get some sense of the code back.
but with vscode its way more foccest on the task i need it to do and do’s not have any of these weird (cursor resets) and fixed my issues in about 1 hour
to be clear ,
i used cursor with 0 rules
i also used cursor with some rules
i also used cursor with the cursor-riper rules (witch helped some btw)
But for me working in cursor feels like me standing in front of a physical helpdesk.
explaining my problem so he can fix it.
and after 15 -30 min the worker tells me to wait so he can fix the problem.
and a totally new person comes in looks at the product i’m having issues with and start troubleshooting without even asking me what’s wrong.
for me to sometimes put in the agent chat… what tf are u trying to do now anyway ?
