What you can say once it's installed

• "Launch a Cursor agent on https://github.com/owner/repo to fix the failing tests."
• "What are my Cursor agents doing right now?"
• "Follow up with that agent: also update the changelog."
• "List my Cursor models / repositories."

Why

Cursor Background Agents run coding tasks in the cloud against your repos. This plugin exposes that API through MCP so your Claude assistant can start and supervise them without you leaving the chat — a lightweight bridge between Claude and Cursor.

Tools (8)

cursor_launch_agent · cursor_get_agent · cursor_list_agents · cursor_agent_conversation · cursor_add_followup · cursor_delete_agent · cursor_list_models · cursor_list_repositories

Endpoint reference: cursor-agent/mcp/docs/API.md. Tracks Cursor's official Background Agents API (https://api.cursor.com).

Security

Your CURSOR_API_KEY is a secret — keep it in your MCP client's env, never commit it. Background agents act on real repos and can open branches/PRs; review output before merging.
