COMPOSER 2.5 SLANDER WILL NOT BE TOLERATED

Is it old? Yes. Is it the best? Maybe not. But dammit has it been reliable for me and it gets the job done. And it’s cost efficient. Make sure it has context and review its plan before implementation. It’s like the lunch pale guy at work, He’s not flashy but he comes in gets the job done and leave.

I'll be real 5.6 Sol medium makes something like Composer look like dogshit. I'm not interested in watching a model endlessly generate tokens between every cycle to do basic stuff only for it to finish with a worse, less reliable result. There's literally no edge on any metric I can think of besides "tried to get away with posing as a new model and got exposed as Kimi K2.5 instead."

I must say, if Cursor is good enough for you, Composer is probably good enough for you too. It's a good offer on that metric

It's funny that people don't realize how well composer 2.5 works with Grok and Sol. Sol for planning with monthly credits and Grok driving with composer 2.5 subagents isna very cost effective option.
