What are Cursor's parallel cloud agents?

Cloud agents run in isolated VMs, handling full dev cycles—code, test, PR—without slowing your machine. Enables true parallelism for multiple tasks.

How do cloud agents change code reviews?

They automate bug fixes via Bugbot, merging 35% directly per Cursor. Reviewers shift to approving agent proposals, slashing cycles.

Will Cursor replace human engineers?

No—agents handle grunt work; humans lead architecture. But teams ignoring them risk falling behind on throughput.
