mark_k · x · 2026-08-18
The author integrated Grok 4.6 into their coding workflow (via Cursor) to test its capabilities. Pros: It excels at complex logic like transactions and data integrity, correctly using raw as the source of truth to ship versioning without schema migration. Cons: It systematically misses basic details (post truncated).
