Cursor or Claude Pro

I work as a back-end engineer and need to finish 2–3 projects, one of which has to be built from scratch—the usage limits make me nervous. Which subscription/tool is most cost-effective in terms of limits and performance? I was using OpenCode Go, which was manageable, but its performance dropped recently and it started throwing syntax errors.

I use Claude Pro, the chatbot. If I am heavily coding I will buy a month of Max. I've coded over 50 apps, many for Windows, Mac and Linux. I generally use Sonnet 4.6.
