What would be the advantage using this over say VSCode with Copilot or Roo Code? I need to make some time to compare, but just curious if others have a good insight on things.

In terms of output, it's comparable. In terms of workflow, it suits my needs a lot more as a VIM terminal user.

I started out using VSCode with their Claude plugin; it seemed like a totally unnecessary integration. A better workflow seems to just run Claude Code directly on my machine where there are fewer restrictions - it just opens a lot more possibilities on what it can do

Aren’t those in-editor tools? Opencode is a CLI
