I see, I'm highly skeptical of using these tools because I honestly feel faster with a vim + clt workflow if I know what to write.
I'll have to check again because 6 months ago this stuff was pure trash and more frustrating than useful (beyond a boilerplate generate that also boils the ocean).
Yes, check again - to be blunt, any opinions (at least tactical on how well feature X works) formed 6 months ago are not really relevant to the conversation today given how fast this is all moving.
Opus 4.5 in Claude Code is a massive jump over 4.0 which is a massive jump over 3.7.
Each generation is being fine-tuned on a huge corpus of freshly-generated trajectories from the previous generation so things like tool use improve really quickly.
