Nice, only got the pro plan and didn't want to get Nickel and Dimed per usage so ended up ignoring claude code, but will give it another go now to see how far I can get with the Pro plan.

Turned out to be a blessing as it led me to discovering augmentcode.com which I'm now using. It's a monthly usage cap but has a unique context engine where it indexes your entire code base which gives its agents access to a lot more content about your code base which helps when adding features to match your existing implementations without needing to explicitly feed it context in every agent message. It still uses Claude Sonnet 4 [1] under the hood so the results are great.

Blows me away what AI agents are capable of these days, it's especially nice when they end up creating new Tailwind UIs (Vue) that's better looking than what I was even thinking about creating.

Augment is also my daily driver. It's absolutely fantastic.
