Composer 1.5 - Improved reasoning over challenging coding tasks
Three months ago, @Cursor launched Composer 1, their first coding agent, and they just released a new update, introducing 1.5.
According to the blog announcement: [1]
Our new release, Composer 1.5, strikes a strong balance between speed and intelligence for daily use (...) Composer 1.5 is a thinking model. In the process of responding to queries, the model generates thinking tokens to reason about the user’s codebase and plan next steps. (...) To handle longer running tasks, Composer 1.5 has the ability to self-summarize. This allows the model to continue exploring for a solution even when it runs out of available context.
In a previous thread, Claude's (Opus, Sonnet) and Google's (Gemini) coding models were leading the way. [2]
Curious if this new release would attract more developers. Any experiences with Composer 1.5?
