Note: The AI coding space moves quickly and the boundaries between different categories (what’s an IDE vs. CLI vs. background agent) blur by the day. That said, I’ve offered some high-level tags using the following definitions:
- IDE: The product is primarily an IDE with a built-in agent (e.g. Cursor, Windsurf). Most other coding agents will be integrated into an IDE not owned by them (e.g. Cline, GitHub Copilot)
- own-model: The product uses their own proprietary LLMs (in addition to others)
- CLI: Coding agent used in the terminal via command line interface (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, Gemini)
- background: Also called async agents, where the execution can take place remotely without the human engineer present & actively steering (e.g. Devin)
- app-builder: All-in-one “vibe coding” platforms, typically a web interface that offers no-code UX (e.g. Lovable, v0)
- GUI: Graphic user interface that allows the user to control one or more coding agents in parallel. Sometimes called coding agent orchestrators (e.g. Conductor).
- oss: Open source
- extension: An extension/plugin for an editor or IDE not owned by the product
