Hi there,
I have a question about how docs work in Cursor.
When adding a new doc, if I simply paste a URL (like a documentation page or article), does Cursor actually fetch or parse the content of that link?
For example:
markdown
CopyEdit
# Google Auth Doc
https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/sign-in
If I reference this later in a prompt like @google-auth-doc, will Cursor use the actual content from that page?
Or is the link just a human reference and Cursor won’t do anything with it unless I manually include the text or a summary?
From what I’ve seen so far, it seems Cursor doesn’t visit or read the link — and only uses what’s physically written in the doc file itself.
Is that correct?
I’ve seen some misleading tutorials/videos that imply otherwise, so I wanted to confirm directly from the team or community. Thanks!
