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.
Agentic coding with parallel AI agents that build and ship real products
Give one goal and several agents work simultaneously on splitting, prioritizing, building and testing tasks, so large jobs finish faster than a single sequential assistant.
Review and adjust the plan before code is written, and keep the full project in context so later requests extend existing work instead of rebuilding it.
Available as a VS Code extension, a JetBrains plugin, and desktop apps for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs plus Windows, so you can work in your usual environment.
Eco Mode uses lower-cost models without spending credits, and bring-your-own-key lets users run the agents on their own model provider credentials.
