AI summary

A user of Claude Code in the terminal is seeking solutions for reviewing AI-generated changes without constantly switching to an IDE like Cursor. While appreciating the productivity boost, they find themselves needing a more visual environment to check project structure, navigate classes, and verify changes, which disrupts their workflow. They are looking for tricks, extensions, scripts, or alternative terminals that could help avoid this frequent back-and-forth, without resorting to a full Vim/Neovim setup.

I'm using Claude Code and really enjoying the productivity boost, but I'm missing one thing: whenever I want to see the project structure, navigate between classes, or just carefully check what got changed, I end up having to open Cursor because it's more visual there and I trust what I'm seeing more. This breaks my flow, I'm constantly switching back and forth between terminal and IDE. Has anyone found a way to solve this without turning it into a full Vim/Neovim workflow? Do you just accept the switch, or have you found some trick (extension, script, another terminal) that helped?
