03·How it works
Cursor vs @vustbot — how they differ
Cursor is an editor with an in-line AI agent that edits your codebase. Great for hands-on building — and it's a paid, card-based subscription.
@vustbot gives you multiple models in a Telegram chat for coding Q&A — paste code, get review/debug/explain/tests. No editor, no repo editing.
Want in-editor agentic edits? Use Cursor. Want cardless coding answers on the go? Use @vustbot — free to start.

Not an IDE replacement
@vustbot is NOT a Cursor-style editor or in-repo agent. It's a chat-based coding assistant — useful for answers and snippets, not for editing your project in place.
Multi-model + cardless
Cursor bundles a model behind a card subscription; @vustbot lets you switch between Claude, GPT, GLM and more, with a free tier and Telegram Stars — no card.
Where it shines
Quick reviews, debugging, explanations, tests, and snippets — especially when you can't or won't pay a Western card subscription.
