Hey, thanks for the feature request. Running Automations on your own self-hosted machine via My Machines is currently only available to some accounts, and the full My Machines selector when creating Automations, especially on Desktop, isn’t available everywhere yet. I can’t share any specific timeline or availability details for Pro accounts right now.
The iOS build case makes sense. The cloud VM doesn’t always support the full toolchain like Xcode, so it’s reasonable to want to point Automations at your own machine.
Here are a few related threads where similar requests are being discussed. Feel free to check them out and upvote, it helps with prioritization:
- Support Local Automations in Cursor
- Local routines / automations for Cursor
- Launch new thread on "My Machines" in Cursor 3 IDE
If we have an update on Pro availability, we’ll post it here.
