Build Cursor with Cursor

Cursor is cool! But what if we use it to build an open-source, customizable AI coding agent? We’ll develop a “Cursor Agent” that writes, reviews, and refactors code—right within Cursor itself. It’s meta, it’s moddable, and it’s powered by the power of Cursor. Let’s build Cursor…with Cursor.

• To install:

  pip install -r requirements.txt
  

• To run the Agent

  python main.py --query "For Trusted by industry leaders, add two more boxes." --working-dir ./project
  

• How does it work? The best starting point to learn is the design doc and the flow code.

• Note: This project hasn't been pressure-tested or optimized. We intentionally keep it simple for learning.

I built this Cursor Agent using Cursor itself!

• I built using Agentic Coding, the fastest development paradigm, where humans simply design and agents code.

• The secret weapon is Pocket Flow, a 100-line LLM framework that lets Agents (e.g., Cursor AI) build for you

Examples

We provide an example project of SaaS product homepage for the code agent to edit.

To run the page:

cd project
npm install
npm run dev

Here are some example queries you can try:

python main.py --query "For Trusted by industry leaders, add two more boxes." --working-dir ./project
