Cursor launches app building and deployment feature
Understand this story
Cursor launches an app building feature where users can describe their requirements in the cloud agent, and Cursor builds the web app, creates a Postgres database as needed, configures Cursor SSO authentication, and completes hosted deployment; when publishing, users select a domain to get a shareable link. The feature is available to all paid plans with cloud agents enabled; individual plan users can also publicly share apps. Apps will not go live until checks pass and the user explicitly publishes. Support for other Git providers (such as GitLab) has not yet launched.

Cursor now lets users build and deploy live apps directly from the editor: a cloud agent scaffolds the web app, sets up a Postgres database if needed, configures authentication behind Cursor SSO, provisions hosting, and returns a shareable link at a chosen domain. Publishing runs deterministic and agentic security checks, and nothing goes live until checks pass and the user explicitly publishes; team admins can view all apps and secrets, add review rules, approve blocked publishes, and unpublish apps. The capability is available on all paid plans with cloud agents enabled, deploying from new or existing repos on Cursor Origin and GitHub, with GitLab support coming soon.
