Sweet vs Copilot
Copilot is the best autocomplete there is — suggestions as you type, right in your IDE. Sweet is a different layer: an agent that ships finished work, not suggestions.

When to use which
Keep Copilot for completions in the IDE. Add Sweet when you want agents working the backlog without per-seat pricing.
