정보
This release brings Background Agents to Slack, allowing you to launch agents directly from your team conversations.
Key Improvements
Background Agents in Slack
- Use Cursor where your team works: You can now launch Background Agents directly from Slack by mentioning @Cursor. Agents can read the thread, understand what's going on, and create PRs in GitHub, all without leaving the conversation.
- Agents understand context: Cursor reads the entire Slack thread before starting, so Background Agents understand the full context when you reference previous discussions or issues.
You can also ask Cursor to investigate issues and get answers:
Getting started
To use Background Agents in Slack, an admin needs to set up the integration first. Check out our setup documentation or ask your workspace admin to connect Cursor from the Dashboard → Integrations page.
