Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

Describe the request

This feature would increase speed in development by approx 50% and keep structure much better.

So imagine that each beginning of a chat is called a “ticket”.
I could have a place where I could write new tickets while waiting for the app to write code.

I could klick “Add new ticket” or card or similar.
And then drag and drop in different orders like a very basic Trello board/list.

Then just klick “Run” and then a new chat tab is opened, the ticket is added as text and automatically “clicked enter”.

I’m today using iPhone notes. I’m writing down things in my phone and it’s in sync with my Mac.

However, there are some formatting things in Cursor such as at:ing files (eg. @index.ts) that are lost so I still have to do a lot of refinement of the ticket once I move it from notes to Cursor.

I also add the same things every time in the end of the message. Like “Ask me follow up questions so you’re 100% sure what I mean” and a few extra lines.

These could be easily auto-added in a kanban/waterfall/Trello list like this.

This would be an absolutely AWESOME upgrade to an already perfect (but a bit pricy) software!

This would be highly preferable over a task list inline in the chat window that is hard to follow. I see a couple of third party extensions for this but they’re subscription services and not something I’m interested in such full features. We have actual kanbans for full project management.

Gemini also has this feature which is very helpful to keep the agents focused on small tasks.

I’m surprised I’ve not seen more requests for this. It seems more granular task-managed approaches are being adopted like spec-kit. I hope that Cursor can keep up and implement some of these task-management features for the agents.

I’d even settle for this being a renderer of a markdown file. But having some buttons to click and cards to drag/drop would be nice too.
