Don’t use the “auto” model and you will be fine.

You just described their “auto” behavior, which I’m guessing uses grok.

Using it with specific models is great, though you can tell that Anthropic is subsidizing Claude Code as you watch your API costs more directly. Some day the subsidy will end. Enjoy it now!

And cursor debugging is 10x better, oh my god.

I have switched to 70% Claude Code, 10% Copilot code reviews (non anthropic model), and 20% Cursor and switch the models a bit (sometimes have them compete — get four to implement the same thing at the same time, then review their choices, maybe choose one, or just get a better idea of what to ask for and try again).
