If that post matches your current situation, one OpenAI-compatible endpoint at https://api.getapiomni.com/ covers GLM / DeepSeek / Qwen / Kimi with a single key — top up from $1, real-time balance, card / Apple Pay / Google Pay / PayPal, no region locks. Moving from Claude to Kimi K2.6 for cost is the trend we serve — direct Kimi access on one key, no OpenRouter uplift. Happy to share current per-model pricing if useful.
Perhaps I’m missing something, but isn’t Cursor simply a VSCode fork with some AI extensions integrated into it? Hate aside, what is the actual technical value of the product?
Haven’t used cursor but I assume it’s like other harnesses where the special sauce is in how it manages context, schedules sub agents, feeds them context, enforces standards, uses tools and skills etc. that make it better then just directly prompting the model.
For example you prompt opus directly with “refactor the auth flow” and it’s going to try and “one shot” it and produce the code from that prompt. Whereas a harness has instructions to say
- Research the current implementation
- Search the web for standards
- Ask the user questions on how they want to do it …
Which produces way better results
