>$39 Github Pro+ to keep using Opus,

This was my first thought too but apparently you can just use Claude Code within VSC: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/vs-code

You can also use Claude Code in a VS Code terminal window, which I much prefer for reasons I can’t quite put my finger on. Granted, I’ve moved to Zed in the past few months. I’m doing the same there.

I've started messing with this and the experience seems pretty similar.
