What Cursor is
Cursor is a VS Code fork that treats agentic editing as the primary interaction rather than an extension bolted on. It maintains a genuine embeddings index of your codebase, which shows on large repos where grep-based harnesses flounder. Background agents run on Cursor's infrastructure and open pull requests, a CLI covers headless use, and an in-house model handles the fast path. Pricing is a subscription with usage-based spend above the included amount.
