SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Configure and manage Cursor IDE agents to enable parallel AI-assisted development workflows across multiple tasks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Configure agent modes (Normal, YOLO, Cloud) and manage agent lifecycles to accelerate development workflows.
  • Create and store agent configs in agents/ and activate them by symlinking to the project's .cursor/agents/ directory.
  • Run up to 8 agents in parallel on a single prompt, each operating in an isolated copy of the codebase for safe experimentation.
  • Use cases include concurrent code review, test writing, and refactoring workflows across large codebases.

Quick Start

Create an agent config in agents/ (for example agents/code-reviewer.md) and symlink it into the project: ln -s /path/to/agents/code-reviewer.md .cursor/agents/code-reviewer.md To deactivate, remove the symlink: rm .cursor/agents/code-reviewer.md

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure multiple Cursor IDE agents to run AI tasks in parallel?

To run parallel AI tasks in Cursor IDE, create agent configuration files in an agents/ directory and symlink them into the project's .cursor/agents/ folder for activation.

What are the different agent modes available for parallel AI workflows?

Cursor IDE agents support three role-based modes for parallel workflows: Normal, YOLO, and Cloud, each defining different levels of autonomy and execution environments for AI-assisted tasks.

Can I run multiple code review and refactoring agents on a single prompt?

Yes, you can run up to 8 agents in parallel on a single prompt, with each agent operating in an isolated copy of the codebase for safe concurrent code review, test writing, or refactoring.

How do I deactivate a Cursor agent without deleting the configuration?

To deactivate a Cursor agent, simply remove the symlink from the .cursor/agents/ directory using the rm command, leaving the original configuration file intact in the agents/ folder.

How does symlink-based activation isolate parallel AI agents during refactoring?

Symlink-based activation links agent configs from agents/ to .cursor/agents/, allowing each of the up to 8 parallel agents to operate in an isolated codebase copy for safe experimentation.
