> The "golden" end state of coding agents is that you give it a Feature Request (EG Jira ticket), and it gives you a PR to review and give feedback on. Cursor, windsurf, etc, are dead ends in that sense as they are local editors, and can not be in CI.

Isn’t that effectively the promise of the most recently released OpenAI codex?

From the reviews I’ve been able to find so far though, quality of output is ehh.

It totally is!

I bias a bit to wanting the agent to be a pluggable component into a flow I own, rather than a platform in a box.

It'll be interesting to see where the different value props/use cases of a Delvin/v0 vs a Codex Cloud vs Claude Code/Codex CLI vs Cursor land.

Thats the promise. The reality is that it's just a subpar version of Claude Code which doesn't support MCP.
