> One thing that surprised me a little is that there doesn't seem to be an "ask for help" escape hatch in it - it would work away for literally days on a task where any human would admit they were stuck?
You are over-estimating the sophistication of their platform and infrastructure. Everyone was talking about Cursor (or maybe was it astroturfing?) but once I checked it out, it was not far from avante on neovim.
Cursor isn't designed to do long running tasks. As someone mentioned in another comment it's closer to a function call than a process like Devin.
It will only do one task at a time that it's asked to do.
