Cursor Cloud + User not able to see the repos

Hello!

I have Cursor Cloud connected to GitHub via the GitHub integration (https://cursor.com/dashboard/integrations) under Account A, which has full read and write access to repos in the organization.

The problem is that Account B cannot use Cursor Cloud to work on those repos. Account B has Triage access on GitHub, but not write access.

The only way for Account B to view the repos in Cursor Cloud today seems to be granting Account B write access on GitHub — even though Account A would be the one making changes and creating PRs.

I don’t understand why Account B can’t see the repos with triage or read access, since Account A is the connected account doing the work. Is there a way to make this setup work?

Thank you for your help!

Hi @gabe_policyme!

This is intentional. Since users starting cloud agents will typically be writing code and raising PRs, they need some level of write access to the repo. In this case, Account B will require elevated access.

That said, this doesn’t mean they should be able to merge arbitrary changes. We recommend protecting your branches to enforce review and merge restrictions.

Did you have some other use case in mind?
