What's your daily IDE pain point that AI tools haven't solved?


I've been using VSCode with Copilot and Cursor with their AI features. While they solve code completion well, I'm curious what daily dev workflows still feel broken.

What's a task that takes you 2-3x longer than it should, even with current AI tooling?

Making a PR for a repo I don't have write access to. It's annoying to have to manually fork it, set my own repo as a new remote, push to it, and then manually go to Github to start a PR from my fork to the main branch in the original.

Probably recording playwright tests. AI could probably help generate nicer selectors?

Configuring correctly for cross compiling (and cross debugging).
