  1. We built an agent workflow app in 24h at Cursor Riga Hackathon

    A team at the Cursor Riga Hackathon developed an agent-powered desktop application called Routine in 24 hours. This app allows users to create automation workflows by describing their intent to an agent, which then assists in building and connecting the workflow steps. The project utilized the Cursor Agent SDK and aimed to provide a more intuitive way to build complex automations compared to traditional manual wiring. AI

  2. When the Agent First Picked Up Its Own Tools

    The Cursor Agent SDK has been updated to enable agents to actively communicate and utilize tools, moving beyond passive observation. Initially, agents could only receive tasks and respond with text, lacking the ability to perform actions like writing files. This was resolved by injecting an MCP server configuration into the SDK, allowing agents to access tools such as `write_report` and `write_task`. Furthermore, providing agents with explicit role context and workflow instructions proved crucial for them to effectively utilize these newly available tools. AI
