I've used all of these tools and for me Cursor works just as well but has tabs, easy ways to abort or edit prompts, great visual diff, etc...

Someone sell me on how Claude Code, I just don't get it.

Having only used the base price of each, I loved the ux of cursor and what it enabled me to do, but I hit my monthly cap in 2 days. Whereas Claude code (on pro) I do hit my session limit and even weekly limit once but never have I had to been tools down for 20+ days.

I hear codex is even more generous.

Admittedly all seem cheap enough, but there does seem to be a large diff in pricing

I’m with you, I’ve used CC but I strongly prefer Cursor.

Fundamentally, I don’t like having my agent and my IDE be split. Yes, I know there are CC plugins for IDEs, but you don’t get the same level of tight integration.
