How Claude Code and Cursor work, using only what their documentation and engineering posts state: the gather-act-verify loop, searching a codebase with grep and with an embedding index (and why Cursor dropped the index), verification, project memory, context management, permissions and checkpoints, subagents and hooks (with a working hook), and Cursor's tab and apply models.
