“Best on legacy code nobody remembers”
Used daily for 6–12 months
We inherited a large service with no documentation and no original authors. Pointing it at the repo and asking how the billing path works produced a better explanation than anyone on the team could have written. That alone justified the subscription.
Pros
Outstanding comprehension of unfamiliar codebases. Terminal-first means it fits our existing tooling.
Cons
Hit Pro limits regularly and moved to Max. No autocomplete, so I still run Copilot alongside.
