Cloud Sync for Chat History

Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

Describe the request

I use Cursor with the Anysphere Remote - SSH extension to develop on a remote server, which lets me pick up my code from any device seamlessly. However, chat history with Cursor’s AI assistant remains local to each machine, breaking the continuity of my workflow when switching devices.

Request: Add cloud sync for Cursor chat history, similar to how Claude.ai syncs conversations across devices.

Use Case: I work from multiple machines (desktop, laptop, etc.) connecting to the same remote development environment. When I switch devices, I lose all context from previous AI conversations, forcing me to re-explain problems or dig through code to remember where I left off.

Why This Matters:

Remote development workflows are increasingly common
The AI chat context is as valuable as the code itself for maintaining productivity
You already have the infrastructure (Cursor accounts, web agents, cloud services)
VS Code is moving toward cloud sync features - this feels like a natural evolution

Expected Behavior:

  • Chat history tied to my Cursor account, not the local machine
  • Seamless pickup of conversations when switching devices
  • Optional: Ability to organize/search chat history across projects

This would make Cursor’s AI assistance truly device-agnostic, matching the flexibility of modern development workflows.

Thanks for considering this.
