Core features
Multi-line and cross-file completion
Cursor Tab uses recent edits to predict what comes next, including multi-line changes and follow-up edits in other files.
An agent that can act
Agent can search the codebase, read and edit files, run terminal commands, and continue multi-step work from the results.
Codebase-aware context
It can answer questions about a repository, trace file relationships, and find entry points without manually attaching every file.
Review and recovery
Changes remain reviewable in the editor, while checkpoints capture the codebase before significant agent edits so you can inspect and restore them.
What the free plan includes
Hobby is free and does not require a credit card. It includes limited Agent requests and access to Composer. The public pricing page does not state a fixed request count, so remaining usage should be checked in the account dashboard.
How to get started
- 1
Install and open a project
Download Cursor, sign in, and open an existing folder or code repository.
- 2
Start by explaining the codebase
Ask Agent to identify entry points, major modules, and file relationships before deciding what to change.
- 3
Begin with a small change
Choose a bounded task, review the diff and test results, and only then move on to larger agent-driven changes.
What Cursor is useful for
Understand an existing codebase
Ask questions against repository context, trace file relationships, and understand existing implementation before editing.
Run multi-step coding tasks
Let agents search code, edit multiple files, and keep the review loop inside the editor.
Complete and revise code quickly
Complete code during everyday development and iteratively revise it from natural-language instructions.
