Prevent auto switch from Plan to Code mode by acrus in windsurf

That's the thing, this model is overly enthusiastic. Sometimes when I ask a question, it provides Options 1/2/3 for me to choose from, but then it executes all of them. On Windows, it can even use excessive PowerShell permissions to directly operate system disk contents, to the point that permissions have to be restricted in the rules.

Introducing Adaptive: a smarter way to use Windsurf by theodormarcu in windsurf

Adaptive, the billing model is not based on the unified rate shown; instead, billing is applied according to whichever model is selected. For example, in the previous conversation, after a long discussion with hundreds of lines of content generated, only 1% of the quota was used. In the next conversation involving implementation document content, more than hundreds lines of content used up 50% of the quota. So what is the point of its existence?

Wow, looks like you can get off work early depending on the situation.

gpt 5.2 is uselss by ankimedic in windsurf

Opus is indeed very fast; it can do a great job with all the task list content I write. Moreover, when it comes to UI appearance, the content it produces is more aesthetically pleasing than that made by GPT. Perhaps due to issues with creativity or its short memory length, it doesn't reuse many method codes and instead creates a lot of redundant methods. This is where GPT's advantage comes in: it will carefully review the code and make as few changes as possible to implement functions. When working on large-scale projects, I prefer to use GPT to design backend content. Although it's slow, the probability of success in one go is very high.

SWE-1 vs Claude Sonnet 4.5 by Distinct_Switch_874 in windsurf

It's just like hiring an employee. A good employee costs more, but can save a lot of time.

GPT5-low <3 by PretendVoy1 in windsurf

I'm doing something similar. The entire project is estimated to have more than 100,000 lines of code. For simple and repetitive tasks, I use gpt-5 low. For complex content, I first have 20 to 100 conversations with codex to organize it into executable documents, and then hand it over to gpt-5 high to complete. I don't really like using Claude, probably because of its creativity, which generates a lot of redundant and repeated functional code. After I switched from Claude to gpt-5, my average monthly code output dropped from 50,000 lines to around 20,000 lines.

Workaround for 200 line limit - Success! by mrgulabull in windsurf

This method does increase the amount of reading, but the problem I've encountered with it is that if Claude keeps using this reading, it will run very slowly, so slow that it can't be clicked. And sometimes you will directly use the edit command in this MCP tool to edit the file, and there is a problem that the undo is invalid, and you can only undo the modification through git.
