I guess the question the is: can't VScode Copilot do the same for a fixed $20/month? It even has access to all SOTA models like Claude 3.7, Gemini 2.5 Pro and GPT o3

Vscode’s agent mode in copilot (even in the insider’s nightly) is a bit rough in my experience: lots of 500 errors, stalls, and outright failures to follow tasks (as if there’s a mismatch between what the ui says it will include in context vs what gets fed to the LLM).

I would have thought so, but somehow no. I have a cursor subscription with access to all of those models, and I still consistently get better results from claude code.

I haven't tried copilot. Mostly because I don't use VSCode, I use jetbrains ides. How do they provide Claude 3.7 for $20/mo with unlimited usage?

Copilot has a pretty good plugin for JetBrains IDEs!

Though their own AI Assistant and Junie might be equally good choices there too.

By providing bad UI that you don't use it so much.
