Launch agent (yekar.cursor-agents.launch-agent) | Write | Launch a Cursor background agent against a repository. The agent runs asynchronously, WRITES code on a branch, and consumes Cursor usage - poll Get agent for progress. |
List agents (yekar.cursor-agents.list-agents) | Read | List this account's background agents with their statuses. |
Get agent (yekar.cursor-agents.get-agent) | Read | Read one background agent's status, branch and summary - the poll after Launch agent. |
Notes
- In Cursor's dashboard, create an API key under Settings → API keys.
- Agents can only reach repositories the Cursor GitHub app is installed on.
