Cursor Agents Toolkit
Provides Arcade tools for managing Cursor Cloud Agents — launching AI coding agents on GitHub repositories, tracking their runs, and administering agent lifecycle through the Cursor API.
Capabilities
- Agent lifecycle management: Create (launch), archive, unarchive, and permanently delete cloud agents; confirm identity and active account before operating.
- Run control and polling: Start runs via launch or follow-up prompts, cancel active runs (asynchronous — poll to confirm terminal state), and retrieve per-run status, branches, and PR output once complete.
- Artifact and model discovery: List and download time-limited links for explicitly uploaded artifact files; enumerate available LLM models (Claude, GPT, Gemini families) accepted by the launch call.
- Inventory and usage: List all agents and their runs (newest first), enumerate reachable GitHub repositories, and retrieve per-agent token usage summarized and broken down by run.
Secrets
CURSOR_AGENTS_API_KEY — An API key issued by Cursor that authenticates all requests to the Cursor Cloud Agents API. To obtain one, log in to your Cursor account and navigate to the API keys section of your account settings or dashboard. The key must belong to an account that has access to Cursor Cloud Agents; you can call CursorAgents.WhoAmI immediately after configuring the secret to verify the key resolves to the expected account. Treat the key as a credential with full access to all agents and runs visible to that account.
For guidance on configuring secrets in Arcade, see the Arcade secrets documentation. You can also manage secrets directly at https://api.arcade.dev/dashboard/auth/secrets.

Behavior
| Tool name | Description | Secrets | |
|---|---|---|---|
Archive a cloud agent so it stops accepting new runs (reversible).
The archive is committed once accepted; if the follow-up read of the agent
fails, the result carries only the agent id with an empty status, and reading
the agent again returns the refreshed state. | 1 | ||
Cancel an active run; cancelling an already-terminal run returns an error.
Cancellation is accepted asynchronously: the returned status reflects the run's
state at the moment of the call and may still be non-terminal even though the
cancel was accepted. Poll the run afterward to confirm it settles to CANCELLED;
do not treat a non-terminal status here as a failed cancel. If the post-cancel
read of the run fails, the result carries an empty status instead of an error.
Upstream failures carry a stable bracketed code before the message when Cursor
supplies one (an open set; the most common here is ``[run_not_cancellable]``,
returned when the run is already terminal). | 1 | ||
Permanently delete a cloud agent. This cannot be undone. | 1 | ||
Get a time-limited download link for one uploaded artifact file.
Artifacts are Cursor "background composer" uploads, not an agent's code changes;
for code output read the run's branch and PR instead. | 1 | ||
Get a cloud agent's configuration and latest run pointer. | 1 | ||
Get token usage for an agent, summed and broken down per run. | 1 | ||
Get a run's current status, and its result, branches, and PR once terminal. | 1 | ||
Launch a Cursor cloud agent on a repository or named environment.
This single call starts the agent and its first run; follow it to completion
with the run tools. | 1 | ||
List your cloud agents, newest first. | 1 | ||
List the artifact files a cloud agent explicitly uploaded.
Artifacts are Cursor "background composer" uploads. Code an agent writes to a repo
lands on the run's branch and PR (see the run's ``branches``), not here, so this is
empty for typical fix-a-repo / open-a-PR tasks. | 1 | ||
List the LLM models available to launch a cloud agent with.
Returns the model ids (e.g. Claude, GPT, and Gemini family models) accepted
by the launch tool's model parameter, with display names and aliases. | 1 | ||
List every GitHub repository Cursor can reach, as repository urls.
The upstream returns the full set in one response, so this is always the
complete list and never a partial page. | 1 | ||
List an agent's runs, newest first.
Listing omits each run's final result text; read an individual run to get it. | 1 | ||
Send a follow-up prompt to an existing agent, starting a new run.
An agent runs one turn at a time. Upstream failures carry a stable bracketed
code before the message when Cursor supplies one (an open set; the most
common here is ``[agent_busy]``). If this returns ``[agent_busy]``, the agent
already has an active run: poll that run until is_terminal, then resend the
follow-up. | 1 | ||
Restore an archived cloud agent to active.
The restore is committed once accepted; if the follow-up read of the agent
fails, the result carries only the agent id with an empty status, and reading
the agent again returns the refreshed state. | 1 | ||
Return the Cursor account the API key authenticates as.
Call this first in a session to confirm which account you are acting on
before launching or managing any cloud agents. | 1 |
