Cursor 3: IDE is dead, long live the operating system for agents 🤖

Apparently, in response to my issue in the previous post, Cursor 3 was released (but I don't want to pay separately for an IDE). And this release is an admission: we no longer write code. We are fleet managers of neural networks.

What changed? 👀

1️⃣ From IDE to Workspace.
Cursor 3 was rewritten from scratch. Why? To go beyond the limitations of VS Code. Now it's a multi-repository environment. Agents can work in multiple projects at once, linking frontend, backend, and infrastructure into one logical chain.

2️⃣ Seamless Handoff
Started a heavy task locally, realized it's time to close the laptop and leave the office — with one button, transfer the session to the cloud. The agent keeps working while you're on the subway. In the morning, you open it — everything is ready.

3️⃣ Integrated Browser
The agent itself opens your localhost, sees errors in the browser console, and fixes them itself.

4️⃣ From Commit to Merge.
The new UI is designed to minimize your manual interaction with the terminal and Git client. The agent stages, commits, and resolves conflicts, while you only approve diffs in a simplified interface.

I predict that in some time, the code editor in the IDE will be an optional/non-essential feature. Screenshot this.
