Working on multiple repositories

The cursor should be able to work on multiple code repositories. For example, if a change we make in our NextJS UI repository requires a change in the API, it should make that change.

Hey, thanks for the question. I get what you’re trying to do, this is a common full-stack workflow.

Right now:

  • Parallel Agents / Worktrees only work within a single Git repo (isolated copies of different branches).
  • Multi-root workspaces (multiple repos opened at once) don’t support Multi-Agents yet.

Workaround: You can open a multi-root workspace (File > Add Folder to Workspace) to view both repos in one window. The agent can still see code from both projects via @-mentions and context, but it will work sequentially, not in parallel.
