Read the full Windsurf review

Windsurf (by Codeium) is a direct Cursor competitor that leans hard into agentic, long-running tasks. Its Cascade agent can plan and execute across many files with minimal hand-holding. Pricing is aggressive and there is a genuinely useful free tier. If Cursor feels too hands-on, Windsurf is worth trying.
