  Understanding Cursor and WindSurf's Code Indexing Logic

Background: The Importance of Context in AI Programming If the “intelligence” of large models, such as Claude 3.5 Sonnet, is the key factor driving a stepwise leap in AI programming capabilities, the other critical factor is the context length. Currently, Claude 3.5 Sonnet offers a maximum context length of 200k tokens. While this is more than sufficient for conversational models—capable of handling a 50,000 or even 100,000-word book with ease—it still falls far short for...
