description: "Cursor’s Cloud Agents let developers run multiple agents remotely without keeping a laptop connected to the internet. Agents can be launched and managed from the Cursor editor, cursor.com/agents, Slack, Linear, and GitHub, supporting background bug fixes, small todos, and larger feature work. For difficult bugs, the team commonly has multiple models attempt the same problem and selects the best result; for complex features, a locally developed plan can be sent to a cloud agent for implementation, allowing work to continue on another task. Cursor also revamped its GPT-5 Codex agent harness for longer time horizons in the cloud, while plan mode supports sending implementation plans remotely. The workflow is available today in Cursor editor and Cursor Web, as well as the listed integrations."

## Summary

Cursor’s Cloud Agents let developers run multiple agents remotely without keeping a laptop connected to the internet. Agents can be launched and managed from the Cursor editor, cursor.com/agents, Slack, Linear, and GitHub, supporting background bug fixes, small todos, and larger feature work. For difficult bugs, the team commonly has multiple models attempt the same problem and selects the best result; for complex features, a locally developed plan can be sent to a cloud agent for implementation, allowing work to continue on another task. Cursor also revamped its GPT-5 Codex agent harness for longer time horizons in the cloud, while plan mode supports sending implementation plans remotely. The workflow is available today in Cursor editor and Cursor Web, as well as the listed integrations.

## Context

Developers need to run many agents without keeping their laptops connected to the internet. Cloud agents are used for background bug fixes, quick todos, and implementing complex features after a detailed plan is prepared.

## Approach / What changed

Cursor provides cloud-agent management in the Cursor editor and cursor.com/agents, with access through Slack, Linear, and GitHub. Plan mode can send implementation plans to the cloud, and the GPT-5 Codex agent harness was revamped for longer time horizons.

## Takeaways

- Multiple models can attempt the same bug fix, after which the team selects the best result; Cursor says this improves outcomes for harder bugs requiring precise changes.
- Cursor’s plan mode allows developers to create and refine a feature plan locally, then hand implementation to a cloud agent while moving to another task.
- Cloud Agents are available in the Cursor editor and Cursor Web, with workflows also accessible through Slack, Linear, and GitHub.
