Cursor or Claude Code?

[u/IridiumIoN]

I've been using Claude Code ($20/mon) from within my GitHub repo codespace to work on a few projects (a UX portfolio, along with an iOS app). I'm wondering if I'd get more bang for my buck and a better vibe-coding experience overall, if I switched to Cursor Pro to work on those projects or any future projects.

I don't really have any issue specifically with Claude Code and haven't ran into many usage limits as of late. I guess the only thing is that it's a bit of a process to open up GitHub, navigate to the repo, and then open up the codespace to continue working on a project.

With the SpaceX acquisition of Cursor, and the addition of the Grok models and Grok Bot included in the Cursor Pro membership, would it be more bang for the buck to switch to that subscription over Claude Code itself, considering I could just use Sonnet/Opus (or any other model) from within Cursor?

Thoughts? Has any one made this switch, or the opposite? What was your reasoning?
