Agentic feature development: Spin up cloud-based coding agents that autonomously plan, implement, test, and demo entire features in parallel — ideal for accelerating sprint velocity on ambitious projects.
AI-assisted code editing & completion: Leverage in-IDE AI completions and edits powered by your choice of model (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Grok, or Cursor models) to reduce boilerplate and catch errors inline.
CLI-driven automation: Use Cursor's CLI to integrate AI coding capabilities into CI/CD pipelines or scripted developer workflows.
MCP-powered context extension: Connect external data sources and tools via the Model Context Protocol to give agents richer, project-specific context.
Enterprise team rollout: Provision and manage engineering org access via SCIM and SAML/OIDC SSO, with SOC 2 and ISO-certified infrastructure and privacy mode for sensitive codebases.
