Junie is a much better agent than the AI Assistant and uses the same AI subscription plan, but Augment blows the doors off both of them.


I didn't know what Augment is, so I checked it out. There's absolute no way I'm going to agree to this [0]:

> When you open a workspace with Augment enabled, your codebase will be automatically uploaded to Augment’s secure cloud.

I never managed to get anything out of Junie. Each of my queries end up with an internal process stuck on a loop eating 100% CPU until I kill it. Back to Windsurf for now which is disappointing because I much prefer PyCharm for everything else.


Results quality is probably language-dependent. I was able to use Junie to do a bunch of Java/Kotlin tasks and it worked very well.
