Cursor 1.0 is here: BugBot intelligent error correction, background agents fully open
Cursor 1.0 is released with many innovative features, bringing developers a more efficient and intelligent coding experience.
Core content:
1. BugBot: an automated code review tool that provides repair suggestions directly in GitHub PR
2. Background agents are fully open to provide remote coding support
3. Jupyter Notebooks is deeply integrated to support multi-cell editing and improve the efficiency of research and data science tasks
Cursor 1.0 version is here
Key highlights include the automated code review tool BugBot, fully open Background Agent, the debut of Memories, one-click MCP installation, Jupyter Notebook support, and a new settings and dashboard interface
Automated Code Review with BugBot
Cursor 1.0 introduces a powerful BugBot feature that automatically reviews your PRs (Pull Requests) and catches potential errors and issues. When BugBot finds an issue, it leaves a comment in the PR on GitHub and provides a "Fix in Cursor" button. Clicking the button will redirect developers directly back to the Cursor editor and see pre-populated fix suggestions to quickly resolve the issue. Users can refer to the official BugBot documentation to complete the setup.
Background Agent is now fully available
Background Agent, which was previously in early testing, is now available to all users. Users can access it by clicking the cloud icon in the chat interface or using the shortcut Cmd/Ctrl+E(need to disable privacy mode) to enable this powerful remote coding assistant. For users who have privacy mode enabled, Cursor also promises to provide a way to enable it soon. Background agents can build, research and debug over a longer time span
Deep integration with Jupyter Notebooks
Cursor 1.0 implements deeper support for Jupyter Notebooks. The intelligent form can now create and edit multiple cells directly in Jupyter, which is a significant improvement for developers doing research and data science tasks. Currently, this feature initially supports the Claude Sonnet model
A Preliminary Study on Memories
The new version introduces the "Memories" feature for the first time (currently in Beta). With this feature, Cursor can remember facts and preferences mentioned by users in conversations and refer to this information in future interactions. Memories are stored at the project and personal level, and users can manage and enable them in "Settings" -> "Rules". For example, let Cursor remember that the development server has hot reload capabilities and does not need to be restarted after changes.
One-click MCP installation and richer chat responses
Cursor 1.0 simplifies the installation process of MCP and supports OAuth. The official website provides a list of selected MCP servers, which users can find at docs.cursor.com/tools View and add. For MCP developers, you can docs.cursor.com/deeplinks Generates an "Add to Cursor" button to easily integrate its service into the user's documentation and README
In addition, chat responses are now richer, and visual content such as Mermaid charts and Markdown tables can be rendered directly in the conversation, making information presentation more intuitive
New settings and dashboards
The settings and dashboard pages have also been optimized and polished in this version. The new dashboard allows users to view individual or team usage analysis data, update display names, and view detailed statistics by tool or model, such as the number of lines of code edited by the agent, the number of accepted tabs, and the number of requests.
