Multi-Agent Parallel Development

Feature Request – Multi-Agent Parallel Development in Large Codebases

Hi Cursor Team,

In large codebases, it’s common to work on multiple independent features that touch different, non-overlapping files. I’d love to see support for multiple Composer threads, allowing Cursor to handle parallel task execution for unrelated features simultaneously.

For example:

  • One thread works on Feature A (e.g., UI changes in the frontend)
  • Another thread works on Feature B (e.g., logic updates in the backend)
  • Both run concurrently, with isolated workspaces, and sync back once complete

This would drastically speed up development by enabling true parallelism for tasks that don’t conflict — similar to having multiple agents or worker threads.

Let me know if this is something being explored. I’d be happy to provide additional use cases.

Thanks again for all the great work on Cursor!

Best,
Michael
