First up, money talks!
Cursor 0.50 is rolling out a unified, request-based pricing model.
- “No more head-scratching over confusing billing! 🤯” is the vibe.
- Max Mode? It’s now on ALL the state-of-the-art models! 🚀 And it uses straightforward token-based pricing (kinda like using those fancy model APIs directly from your CLI, but right in Cursor!).
- Heads Up! 📢 If you’re on an older Cursor version, those previous MAX versions and long context modes are waving goodbye soon. So, hit that update button, peeps!
Your Coding Buddy Got SMARTER! 🧠
- New & Improved Tab Model! ✨ Get ready for a Tab model that can suggest changes across MULTIPLE FILES! 🤯 It’s apparently a beast at refactors, tricky edit chains, and jumping between related code. Plus, it “feels more natural and snappier.” Oh, and syntax highlighting for completions! Nice touch! 👌
- Shove Your ENTIRE Codebase into Context with
@folders! 📂 Yeah, you read that right! Enable “Full folder contents” in settings, and bam! Cursor gets way more context. (It’ll show a little icon if a folder is too chonky to fit, bless its heart 😉).
AGENT POWER-UP! 🤖
This section is HUGE!
- 💥 BACKGROUND AGENT PREVIEW! 💥 This is a BIG ONE, folks! Cursor agents can now run in the background! 🤯 Launch multiple agents in parallel to tackle those monster tasks! They run in their own remote environments, and you can check their status, send follow-ups, or just take over whenever. Cursor says they’re already using it internally for fixing nits, doing investigations, and drafting medium-sized PRs. This is rolling out gradually, so keep an eye out!
- Refreshed Inline Edit (Cmd/Ctrl+K) with Agent Smarts! 🧑🎨 The trusty Inline Edit got a UI glow-up AND new options! Now you can blast out full file edits (⌘⇧⏎) or yeet your selected code straight to an agent (⌘L) for more complex, multi-file wizardry! 🪄
- SUPER FAST Edits in HUGE Files! ⚡ There’s a new agent tool that does search & replace like a code ninja 🥷 in massive files. Instead of slogging through the whole thing, it zips to the exact spot and makes the change. They say it’s nearly TWICE AS FAST in some tests (like on the Postgres codebase!). Rolling out to Anthropic models first, more soon!
Juggle Projects & Chats Like a PRO! 🤹💬
- Multi-Root Workspaces are HERE! 😲 Got projects scattered across different folders? Now you can bring ’em ALL into ONE Cursor workspace! Everything gets indexed and is ready for Cursor’s magic.
