Well yeah, it is just better. At my work we have a copilot license, but we use it to access Claude Sonnet/Opus model in OpenCode.

The Copilot-Cli is not so bad,

    Can't speak for copilot but Gemini cli is unbelievably bad compared to Gemini web.

    CC has some magic secret sauce and I'm not sure what it is.

    My company pays for both too, I keep coming back to Claude all-round

      I would love to hear/see a definitive answer for this, but I read somewhere that the relationship between MS and \A is such that the copilot version of the \A models has a smaller context window than through CC.

      This would explain the "secret sauce", if it's true. But perhaps it's not and a lot is LLM nondeterminism mixing with human confirmation bias.

    Agreed. I was an early adopter of Claude Code. And at work we only had Copilot. But the Copilit CLI isn't too bad now. you've got slash commands for Agents.MD and skills.md files now for controlling your context, and access to Sonnet & Opus 4.5.

    Maybe Microsoft is just using it internally, to finish copying the rest of the features from Claude Code.

    Much like the article states, I use Claude Code beyond just it's coding capabilities....

      Same situation, once I discovered the CLI and got it set up, my happiness went up a lot. It's pretty good, for my purposes at work it's probably as good as Claude Code.

    It's sluggish in GitHub Codespaces, as it has so many animations.
