Your Cursor, from your phone. The conversation doesn't have to end

Showcase Built for Cursor
1

To some people Cursor is “just” an IDE. To others, it’s a coworker, a personal assistant, someone you strategize with. And so much more.

When you step away from your computer, the collaborations and conversations get interrupted. Pulling out your laptop doesn’t always work. Using ChatGPT or one of the other apps on your phone isn’t the same. They don’t have access to your computer. Cloud agents live in the cloud. Different thing.

On your computer, there are your files, your scripts, your conversations. It could be so simple if you could just access YOUR Cursor.

So I built a bridge that makes that possible. It connects your running Cursor instance to Telegram on your phone. Everything mirrors both ways. Voice messages, images, text, confirmations.

Here’s a demo:

It goes without saying: it runs locally on your machine. No cloud, no server, no middlemen. Just a Python script that connects Telegram’s free bot API and Cursor via the Chrome DevTools Protocol.

To be fair, it’s a proof of concept. A starting point. Something I’d like to explore with others. It’s under MIT license. No strings attached.

Happy coding.

Very much an interesting project and great showcase video! I was looking for something like this for a while. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! Good to hear someone else was feeling the same itch.

Since posting I’ve added multi-instance support. The bridge
automatically picks up when you open or close Cursor workspaces,
create or switch chats. When you’re at your desk, the active chat on
Telegram follows along. When you’re on your phone, /chats lets you
quickly jump between them.

The idea was somewhat inspired by the Lex Fridman / Peter Steinberger
podcast where Peter talked about working with multiple AI assistants
simultaneously.

If you give it a try, I’d genuinely love to hear how it goes.
Especially curious what features people would want next.
