The AI coding agent for building ambitious software
An agentic mode that plans changes, edits several files at once, runs tests, and iterates until the task is complete.
Background agents spin up their own environments to build, test, and demo features in parallel, then hand back results for review.
Fast inline suggestions plus codebase-wide semantic search and indexing so answers reflect your actual repository.
Switch between leading frontier models from multiple providers, or let Cursor select a model automatically for each task.
Run AI models offline with a free, open-source desktop playground
Run models without a GPU, with automatic thread adaptation and support for q4, q5.1, q8, and f16 quantized weights.
Keep every model in one directory-agnostic library, with resumable concurrent downloads and usage-based sorting.
Compute BLAKE3 and SHA256 checksums, check them against a known-good model API, and view license and usage chips before running a file.
Load a model and start a local streaming inference server in two clicks, then connect any compatible AI client.
