Is it possible to run Cursor as a web server serving the UI ? My use case is I’d like to deploy Cursor somewhere (VM, container) and access it via a browser. In my specific case, that would be to integrate it inside my development container toolkit.
Something similar to what is provided by:
I think that Cursor is built on VSCodium, but is it exposing the UI in the server or only in the Electron build?

This would be possible with vscode-server, like coder.com . I saw there is an existing issue for this on Github maybe you want to give it a +1 and a comment.

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
I (like many… others) travel and have long used [code-server](https://github.com/coder/code-server) on my main machine so I can carry a light tablet/laptop hybrid and still get a great development experience. It'd be awesome if Cursor could use the quilt patch based mod pipeline from code-server to provide a similar experience over web.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Evaluate if the same (or nearly the same) patches from code-server could be applied to Cursor allowing for a web-based experience.
**Additional context**
Not sure how diverged the internal fork is but give the patch based code mods from code-server it may be trivial or it may be too complicated but figured I'd ask

Hello, I made a docker image to access Cursor in a web browser. You can found it in Arfo-du-blo/cursor-in-browser GitHub repo !

Cursor has now Web Agent so you can use Cursor in web browser safely.
