I think that having a unified protocol for connecting agents and dev tools is inevitable (like LSP); the question is how not to build USB-A and USB-C simultaneously
IMO, as AIs improve the need for conventional IDEs will disappear completely. You can already go very far with just Claude Code/Codex/Gemini CLI.
I think the opposite. These CLI tools are a stopgap until we get proper IDE integration.
Even the existing extensions for vscode I find have a much better ux than the clis
I have started "dumbing down" my IDE's and editors, because they are only for the occasional manual editing, code browsing/reviews and commits.
I haven't used AI auto complete in months.
