Cursor Cloud Agents Integration

Cursor Cloud Agents automate repo analysis and scripted changes using the Cloud Agents API. While there isn’t a dedicated service file under reformer-platform/services, the platform relies on the API for automated maintenance tasks and MCP workflows (see mcp-servers/ docs).

Environment Variables​

CURSOR_API_KEY=key_...
  • Stored in Render and GitHub secrets.
  • Added November 9, 2025; rotated via Cursor dashboard (Settings → Integrations → API Access).

Usage Patterns​

  • Automation scripts and MCP servers call https://api.cursor.com/v0/agents with Basic auth (CURSOR_API_KEY:).
  • Tasks often include documentation updates, bug triage, and repo audits driven by Cursor agents.
  • The docs site and ClickUp updates documented today were deployed with this key.

Operational Notes​

  • API key must be present in any environment invoking MCP workflows; missing key triggers runtime failures.
  • When rotating the key, update Render, GitHub, and the secure credential doc, then note the change in docs and ClickUp.
  • Reference materials live in mcp-servers/*/CURSOR-SETUP.md.

Future enhancement: create a dedicated service module (services/cursor-service.js) to standardize agent launch and monitoring.***
