I don't think so, model improvements far outweigh any harness or tooling.

Look at https://github.com/SWE-agent/mini-swe-agent for proof

Yes but people aren’t choosing CC because they are necessarily performance maximalists. They choose it because it has features that make it behave much more nicely as a pair programming assistant than mini-swe-agent.

There’s a reason Cursor poached Boris Cherney and Cat Wu and Anthropic hired them back!

They nailed down the UX I would say and the models themselves are a lot better even outside of CC
I don’t think I disagree with you about anything, I’m trying to split hairs at this point.
