# Run Cursor in ace

Cursor's coding agent, run from its command-line tool.

- Run Cursor's agent beside Claude Code and Codex, each thread in its own worktree.

## What Cursor gets in ace

- [Agent orchestration](https://acehq.dev/features/orchestration/): Delegate from any agent to any provider
- [Computer use](https://acehq.dev/features/computer-use/): Agents read apps through accessibility, then click and type
- [Fleet](https://acehq.dev/features/fleet/): Agents start threads and open browsers on linked machines
- [iPhone and iPad](https://acehq.dev/features/mobile/): Live Activities that end only when the whole agent tree is done
- [Remote access](https://acehq.dev/features/remote-access/): Sign in with email, Google or GitHub
- [Accounts and limits](https://acehq.dev/features/accounts/): Each account signs in through the CLI's own login, kept apart
- [Browser use](https://acehq.dev/features/browser/): One shared browser: the same tabs and logins for you and agents
- [Devices](https://acehq.dev/features/devices/): Live screen, UI tree, logs and recordings
- [Worktrees and review](https://acehq.dev/features/review/): One git worktree per thread, created for you
- [Thread status](https://acehq.dev/features/status/): Working, Approve, Waiting, Failed and Done

## Set up Cursor

1. Install Cursor and sign in, the way its own instructions say. ace uses that login as it is.
2. Download ace for your computer and open a project folder.
3. Start a thread and choose Cursor. Give it its own worktree if other agents share the repository.

## Questions

### Does ace need a Cursor API key?

No. ace starts Cursor through its own command-line tool, signed in the way you already use it, so your existing plan keeps working. ace never asks for, stores or proxies credentials.

### Can I run Cursor beside other agents?

Yes. Run Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others side by side, each thread in its own git worktree, and hand a thread from one agent to another with its context.

### Can Cursor hand work to other agents?

Yes. Cursor can delegate tasks to agents on other providers and on your other machines with ace's delegate tool, and wait for their results.

### Can Cursor use a browser and my desktop apps in ace?

Yes. ace gives Cursor the same MCP tools as every other agent: a real browser, computer use, phone simulators, and delegating to agents on other machines.
