Having tried a bit of Cursor and some Zed I still find Claude Code a lot better than the rest (though maybe now the Claude Code Zed Beta will change things.) That means what I'm mostly doing is keeping Claude Code up in the terminal and having it do things. Claude Code has an option to view diffs in your editor which you can configure and works fine with emacs and its various diff modes (and looks great too.) I usually always make sure everything in my branch is committed before letting Claude Code loose on my code so I can view the changes normally as a magit diff and then choose whether I want to edit any of its changes (90% of the time) or commit as is (10% of the time.) I can also restore files selectively this way and have all of my git tools available if needed. If you want deep Claude Code integration Cursor style, then check out h

ttps://github.com/manzaltu/claude-code-ide.el . The latest releases of emacs support using `vc` blocks to specify packages so you can grab the elisp package straight from the repo and get it working within your emacs. If you want a chat style interface, GPTel exists but requires some config (not much but not zero either) before it becomes usable as a general chat tool like Claude Desktop or ChatGPT. I'm working on an elisp package to recreate a chat interface atop GPTel and decrease the config burden.

I'm fascinated by this and the recent claude-code-ide package: https://github.com/manzaltu/claude-code-ide.el But, I cannot seem to get past this error when I run claude-code-ide: "Symbol’s function definition is void: project-root" I know this is defined in project.el, but claude has been surprisingly unhelpful at fixing this issue. I'm feeling a bit frustrated by the state of emacs packages lately. I've used emacs for 30 years and it feels like things are getting worse.
