[macOS] Suppress update helper prompts and enabling of auto update via MDM

Feature Requests
1

Hello,

We also rolled out to users who do not have sudo access.
As of 1.2.2, understand Cursor has enabled a update helper that requires admin elevation to allow install.

It’s currently very annoying for my non administrator users.

We do need a few keys similar to alot of apps.
the correct key or a full schema for MDM to be able to manage the below

  • Update helper
  • Auto update

Here’s a example

Btw, is the expected app ID com.todesktop.230313mzl4w4u92 ? kind of strange

Saw this posted in Feb

I got curious why the strange app ID, since it was the preference domain to be used in MDM.

@truell20 would you be able to shed some light on the bundle id?

If it would be changed later or via updates.

Trying to painfully test as there’s a lack of documentation.
