Claude Code Ship Crew

An agentic engineering loop: write, review, test, ship.

Intermediate build · Coding · 5 parts · Running cost: $47–$230/mo + model usage

Claude Code does the heavy lifting in the terminal, Cursor gives you the same brain inside the editor, and a review layer catches what either of you missed before it merges.

What drives the cost: Medium — per-seat subscriptions
