Codex is still going strong but it’s hard to imagine they won’t do similar eventually.
So now im honestly hearing a lot more folk stick it out with cursor while waiting for the dust to settle.
A lot of enterprises use Github Copilot which has per-request pricing model which effectively means unlimited tokens which eliminates this issue.
The harness receives a response, has to parse out the tool call, execute it and then start a new request with the tool call result.
Nope, not unless you are doing steering.
Each new prompt = new request, but tool calls don't count.
Cursor also has a very nice integrated DX that I miss in Claude's VSCode plugin.
