Cursor 2.0 - Our first coding model and new interface for agents
by•
Two big updates that make Cursor the best place to work with agents: our first coding model, Composer, and a new interface for working with many agents in parallel.
Also included in this release: browser for Agent, voice mode, improved code review, and more!

Look forward to hearing what you think of Cursor 2.0!
Big shoutout to the Product Hunt community for all your support for Cursor over the past few years 🙌🏻

@benln congrats!
Long time Cursor user and it feels like every week there's a new Cursor feature or model that makes me feel like a developer in a candy store! Maybe I'm mixing my metaphors here but it's great to see all these things culminate in a well polished v2 launch!

@stably_david appreciate all your support David!
To be honest, I knew many people had already uninstalled Cursor, but Cursor 2.0 is truly fantastic and worth using. My favorite feature is the ability to output multiple model results at once, which solved my indecisiveness and saved me a lot of time.
BTW, the new model Composer1 seems to run very fast; I look forward to the next version.

Can the parallel Agents work on the same problem? I do this in PPLX. I give pplx access to github and have 3 different models (O3, Opus, Sonnet etc) work on the same problem on different branches. Then I let an AI review the PRs and pick the best. Esp for hard problems, this is a life saver.

@sentry_co Yep! We've found this really helpful as well.

@leerob Good to hear others to this as well. 🙏 Expensive but so worth it. $325 per month 😅

@leerob is this available only in the ultra plan?

@sentry_co @leerob it’s like a coordinated hackathon of agents running in parallel, each exploring different solution paths. Ensuring the best implementation always wins out feels like a powerful reliability pattern.

@leerob @dkargatzis Its the classic, all this code, where do I put it? The task today, is not more code, but the right code, you only get the right code if you see more variations of the same solution at once, and then pick the best or cherry pick from each variant. Esp for hard problems this is important. For incremental stuff, its better to wiggle your way forward, test, code, test code etc. But the big, hard problems. The variant flow is a life saver IMO.

I'm very keen to try Composer1. How would you say it compares to Sonnet 4.5 and are there situations where you'd recommend still switching (manually) to different agents? I'm imagining maybe one is better for UI/Design and another potentially for refactoring code or a repo.

@gabe I'd encourage you to try them both out! I'd still use frontier models like Sonnet 4.5 and GPT-5 for the hardest, most complex tasks. Let us know how it goes!

Congrats Ben, Lee, and Andrew on this phenomenal launch! Cursor 2.0 with Composer and the parallel agent interface is a game-changer for the dev community. The addition of voice mode and browser capabilities shows you're truly thinking about the future of coding. Amazing work by the entire team!

I love the direction you’re going with the AI-powered editor. It’s refreshing to see something that actually makes coding smoother and more efficient without getting in the way.

@chrishicken Thanks Chris, excited to hear what you think!
Excited to see how Cursor evolves.
Still using Claude extension to VScode. But maybe now will try to find a use case for myself again.
Why it is on hype soooo much?
