Cursor Projects
A multi-agent collaboration feature introduced by Cursor that supports continuous interaction with an orchestrator agent within a persistent single thread. The orchestrator schedules sub-agents to execute complex development tasks in parallel, maintaining context continuity across sessions.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Both Claude Code Projects and Cursor Projects adopt a coordinator mechanism responsible for splitting tasks among multiple cloud Agents running in parallel and maintaining shared context.
Cursor Projects is available on all paid plans (including the Enterprise plan), but excludes the free Hobby plan.
Cursor Projects does not support legacy privacy mode.
When selecting tools, priority should be given to those that match the existing code hosting location and subscription plan, rather than simply comparing which is more capable.
Cursor Projects' cloud chat can still access code repositories on local systems such as Mac and Windows.
The core promise of Cursor Projects is the elimination of context decay.
The demonstrator reached the conclusion that code output quality had improved after experiencing Cursor Projects for only approximately 48 hours.
Cursor Projects circumvents context window limitations by persisting project state to the cloud and decoupling it from the agent lifecycle.
The workflow for Cursor Projects includes creating a workspace, connecting a local code repository to GitHub or Origin, setting a default agent model, and creating and saving a cloud environment.
The demonstrator ran approximately 25 agents working in parallel simultaneously on a software project.
