Agentic AI code editor that plans and executes multi-step changes across a codebase.
Why we recommend it
Windsurf's agent mode goes further than autocomplete — it reasons about a whole task and executes it across files, with a cheaper entry price than Cursor.
Strengths
- Agentic multi-step editing
- Cheaper than Cursor
- Clean, focused interface
Drawbacks
- Smaller ecosystem than Cursor
- Agent runs still need review
