Extension and migration questions
Connect "Name which of those differences would land on your support queue and how you'd handle it" to the decision you would make.
Step 1 of 2
Before the loop, do real work in Cursor and at least one competitor on the same task and write down two things each does better. First-hand specifics ("Tab caught a cross-file rename Copilot missed; Claude Code was smoother for a one-off shell script") read as genuine.
Then close the loop to the role: name which of those differences would land on your support queue and how you'd handle it.
"I use Cursor daily and the Agent plus Tab combination is what keeps me in it. Copilot still wins on raw ubiquity and for pure terminal work I reach for Claude Code. The fork model is Cursor's biggest strength and its biggest source of support tickets - extension and migration questions - which is honestly part of why this role interests me."
