How do you use it? Is it like small regular dev tasks like "implement this feature" or sth, or you create an app from scratch?

Also, do you really like the terminal-based control?
I used Aider & Gemini before and I would still prefer Copilot, because it's just much more clear and UI friendly
I've been using 3.7 since it came out pretty heavily. first in cursor, now in claude code. even though it's the same model, claude code doesn't mess with context size to make it more cost efficient. you yourself decide if and when its time to create a summary or clear context all together. so in claude code 3.7 does actually go through as much of your codebase as it deems necessary to complete a task. it's so much better, and it burns through tokens like mad

how do i use it? well, first i tested it to help me implement a proper authentication logic(quite involved) into the app i've been working on. no, it didn't do the whole thing correctly in one go. but still impressed me. since then i've completely switched to claude code. it's a research preview and they're pushing out updates often.

i too was skeptical about the terminal thing. but it's great, anthropic have done a great job with this thing. just try it, man - you will be impressed.
