Hi, For those using Claude Code, do you prefer the CLI or the VS Code extension? I have both installed and I’m still trying to figure out which one makes more sense to use day to day. The extension feels much easier for chats and reviewing changes, but the CLI seems better for giving Claude a bigger task and letting it work more independently. Do you notice any real difference in speed, resource usage, cost, or autonomy between the two? Which one do you use most, and why? Thanks submitted by /u/Soft_Schedule6341
