June 2025 Coding Agent Report
🚨 New Report: How 15 AI Coding Agents Stack Up (June 2025)
AI coding agents are exploding in capability—but which ones actually work for real-world dev tasks?
Click here for our 61 page deep dive.
We ran a deep, hands-on test of 15 agents. The cli tools (aider, Claude, Codex, Goose), the IDE integrations (Copilot, Cursor, RooCode, Windsurf), to totally autonomous ones (Codex Agent, Copilot Agent, Cursor Agents, Jules, Windsurf Cascade) to the hybrids (Replit, v0, Warp)
Then we evaluated every result using both objective and subjective criteria:
🔍 Evaluation Criteria:
- Sparking Joy: Did it delight, frustrate, or surprise us?
- Difficulty of Setup: How fast and clean was the install and first-run experience?
- Code Quality: Architecture, readability, modularity
- Testing: Test coverage, structure, and maturity
- Tooling: Environment setup, Docker, scripts
- Documentation: Inline comments, README, setup clarity
- Professional Polish: Production-readiness, error handling, deployability
- Hire Recommendation: Would you hire this “agent” as a junior dev?
📊 We scored each tool across all 8 axes and visualized the results in a clean 24-point heatmap.
💡 Top Recommendations:
✅ Best Overall for Developers:
Cursor + Warp – Ideal for engineers who want deep control, fast iteration, and powerful context management across CLI and IDE.
✅ Best for Product Designers & Non-Devs:
v0 – A Next.js/Vercel-native visual tool with one-click deployment and great UX scaffolding.
✅ Easiest Onramp for Casual Builders:
Replit – Instant access, low friction, hosted deployment—perfect for people solving real problems without deep dev experience.
✅ Most Promise for Teams:
Copilot Agent & Jules – Still rough, but deeply integrated into GitHub and Google workflows, and improving fast.
✅ Best for Open Source Tinkerers:
RooCode & Goose – If you want full model control or to run LLMs locally, these are your playground.
