Cursor cloud agents ship shareable live apps
Your cloud agent can now leave localhost with a shareable live app.
Cursor’s Nov 5, 2026 changelog says you describe the app, and it scaffolds the code, can provision Postgres, puts auth behind Cursor sign-in, and hosts it after you publish.
What changed
Kick off a cloud agent and say you want to build an app. Local agents can’t do this path. You can start from scratch on Cursor Origin or deploy from an existing GitHub repo. When the app is ready, a tray lets you preview it, pick a URL, and publish.
Cursor runs deterministic and agentic security checks first. Nothing goes live until those checks pass and you choose to publish.
What you can share
- Invite specific people or groups, open it to the whole Cursor team, or (on individual plans) share publicly. Public sharing stays off by default for Teams and Enterprise until an admin turns it on.
- Team admins see every app and secret, can add rules to the security review, approve publishes the review blocked (except malicious code, hardcoded secrets, or exposed credentials), and unpublish any app.
- A Cursor API key in the
x-cursor-app-tokenheader lets scripts, CI, or Grok Bot call private or team apps the way a signed-in user would.
How it affects your work
Ops, sales, and eng teams can stand up an internal signup dashboard, bug tracker, or launch microsite without wiring hosting themselves. Availability is all paid plans with cloud agents enabled. GitLab and other git providers beyond Cursor Origin and GitHub are listed as coming soon.
