Cursor

About

Cursor is an AI-first coding environment and agent for building software with context from a real codebase. It helps developers move between planning, editing, debugging, and reviewing while keeping the project files, terminal output, and instructions close to the work. Developers should still review changes and run their own tests. Key features • Chat with an AI assistant that can use repository context to answer implementation questions. • Generate, edit, and refactor code across related files from a natural-language task. • Use agent-style workflows to investigate issues, propose a plan, and make a set of edits. • Keep project instructions and review steps in the development workflow. Pricing Cursor offers a free starting option with paid plans for greater model access and agent usage. Check the current plan page for limits. Use cases • Start a feature with a scoped implementation plan and first pass of code. • Trace an error across files and prepare a targeted fix. • Refactor repetitive code while preserving project conventions. • Learn an unfamiliar repository with guided explanations.
