Overview
- Cursor, which unveiled Cursor 3 on Thursday, introduced a workspace that lets developers assign coding tasks to AI agents that carry out the work.
- The new interface spins up and tracks many local and cloud agents in one sidebar and supports work across multiple code repositories.
- A handoff feature moves an agent session between the cloud and a local desktop so users can review code, make edits, and run tests on their own machine.
- Rivals’ pricing looms large as developers report shifting to Claude Code and Codex for generous rate limits, with Menlo Ventures data putting Claude Code’s share near 54%.
- Trust remains a factor after users learned Cursor’s recent Composer 2 model was largely a licensed version of Moonshot AI’s Kimi 2.5 rather than a fully original system.
