title: "Firetiger joins Cursor"
description: "Cursor announced that the Firetiger team is joining the company, bringing together coding agents with agents focused on software after it reaches production. Founded in 2024 by Rustam Lalkaka and Achille Roussel, Firetiger builds agents that monitor rollouts, catch regressions, investigate incidents, and pass findings back to coding agents. The stated motivation is to reduce operational toil and connect code generation with production feedback, so an agent can ship a change, observe its behavior, and respond when something goes wrong. Firetiger’s work is expected to appear across Cursor as the companies develop long-running, autonomous, context-aware agents for teams, alongside Cursor Origin and the forthcoming Change Monitors, which will watch deployed changes and flag problems as they appear."

**Type:** Announcement

## Summary

Cursor announced that the Firetiger team is joining the company, bringing together coding agents with agents focused on software after it reaches production. Founded in 2024 by Rustam Lalkaka and Achille Roussel, Firetiger builds agents that monitor rollouts, catch regressions, investigate incidents, and pass findings back to coding agents. The stated motivation is to reduce operational toil and connect code generation with production feedback, so an agent can ship a change, observe its behavior, and respond when something goes wrong. Firetiger’s work is expected to appear across Cursor as the companies develop long-running, autonomous, context-aware agents for teams, alongside Cursor Origin and the forthcoming Change Monitors, which will watch deployed changes and flag problems as they appear.

## Context

Firetiger was started to reduce operational toil and improve production reliability. The announcement says coding agents have made it easier to generate and ship code, while much of software engineering still involves safely deploying changes and understanding or fixing production issues.

## Approach / What changed

Cursor and Firetiger are bringing coding agents and production-focused agents closer together, enabling an agent to ship a change, observe its behavior in production, and respond to problems. Firetiger’s work will appear across Cursor, alongside Cursor Origin and forthcoming Change Monitors.

## Takeaways

- Firetiger agents monitor rollouts, catch regressions, investigate incidents, and pass their findings back to coding agents.
- The integration is intended to connect code generation with production feedback so agents can assess whether deployed changes work.
- Change Monitors are planned to watch deployed changes and flag problems as they appear.
