Claude Code is not an editor theme. It is an agent that reads the project, plans, and edits across files. That is why CTOs put it on architecture and migrations, then keep Cursor or Copilot for the daily keystrokes. The $20 Claude Pro bundle is the on-ramp. People who let it run all afternoon land on Max. If your only complaint about Copilot is “it does not rewrite the module,” try this before buying a $200 Ultra IDE plan.
