### Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

### Describe the request

Visual Studio Code supports policy management via `.mobileconfig` files through MDM. A sample configuration file can be found at:  
`/Applications/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/policies/com.microsoft.VSCode.mobileconfig`

Starting with **VS Code 1.99** , you can configure AI-related policies such as:

- `ChatMCP`
- `ChatToolsAutoApprove`  
…and others. A full list is available in the [official documentation](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/setup/enterprise#_centrally-manage-vs-code-settings).

In **Cursor 1.26.6** , the available `.mobileconfig` settings are more limited:

```auto
"AllowedExtensions" => ""
"AllowedTeamId" => ""
"ExtensionGalleryServiceUrl" => ""
"UpdateMode" => "none"

```

The sample file is located at:  
`/Applications/Cursor.app/Contents/Resources/app/policies/com.todesktop.230313mzl4w4u92.mobileconfig`

While Cursor offers **Enterprise-Only** MCP server management, we previously relied on MDM for policy configuration. Are there plans to expand `.mobileconfig` support in Cursor to match VS Code’s flexibility?

### Operating System (if it applies)
