Cursor CLI

Cursor’s command-line coding agent, connected through its structured Agent Client Protocol interface. Set it up on the computer where you want OpenMeld to run local work.

Open official setup guide Return to OpenMeld

OpenMeld checks supported local agents on this computer and only lists installations it can control. Sign in to an agent before checking again.

Install

Install Cursor CLI with the official installer: curl https://cursor.com/install -fsS | bash
Make sure ~/.local/bin is on your PATH, then run cursor-agent login.
Complete Cursor CLI sign-in in your browser. Cursor IDE sign-in does not sign in Cursor CLI.

Verify

Run this command in Terminal:

cursor-agent status

Next step

Re-run the setup command from OpenMeld Web. If this computer is already set up, open Settings, go to Computers, and choose Check Local Agents.

OpenMeld verifies Cursor CLI by finding a launchable cursor-agent executable, checking cursor-agent --version, and reading cursor-agent status. OpenMeld runs Cursor through Agent Client Protocol (ACP).
