Hey community and team cursor,

thanks for making the Agent APIs available the Cursor SDK Cursor SDK & Cloud Agents API updates I used mostly the cloud agent api directly Cloud Agents API | Cursor Docs to vibe-code a small workflow automation tool for my github projects at https://cursor-automation.com basically leading a single github ticket through multiple cloud-agent prompts and CI until it’s acceptable.

It would be really great in addition to the current API to have some insight / control on the cloud-environment state:

  1. Querying whether the user has setup a cloud-environment for his repository yet. So that in the UI I could show a warning “We recommend to setup a cloud-environment first for best Demo experience”

  2. Either kick-off the cloud-enviornment setup directly from the API or an API call to generate a link that can bring the user to the right place to get started.

Hey @dominicletz!

Thanks for the feedback. It’s a good callout that environment information isn’t available in the API. Will share with the team!

I would note that even without an environment configured, the cloud agent will run (using a basic fallback environment). It can still read files, write code, commit, and push, but it won’t be able to run tests, linting, or anything that requires project-specific dependencies. You can always nudge the user during setup to go to a URL like https://cursor.com/onboard?repository=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Forg%2Frepo to configure their environment.

Hey that URL is an amazing hint! Will add that!
