Feature request for product/service
Cursor IDE
Describe the request
It would be great if Cursor Agent mode have feature computer use similar as codex and claude code desktop
Operating System (if it applies)
Windows 10/11
MacOS
Linux
Hey, thanks for the feature request.
This is partially available already. In the IDE, Agent has a browser tool, so it can control the built-in browser navigation, screenshots, clicks, and self-verify tasks on the web. More details here: Browser | Cursor Docs
Full local computer use controlling your whole desktop and any apps on your machine like Codex CUA or Claude Code desktop is not available natively yet. As a workaround, you can connect a computer-use MCP server. Via MCP, Agent can get access to those capabilities: Model Context Protocol (MCP) | Cursor Docs
I’ve logged the request for a native local computer-use mode. There’s no ETA yet. If you want, you can follow a related thread where this idea is already being discussed: Feature Request: Computer Control / Coworker Mode for Cursor
