Cursor Delegate MCP server

Cursor Delegate

Stop burning your frontier agent's limits on boilerplate.

Delegate edits to Cursor's CLI agent — your agent writes the brief and reviews the diff.

Use your best coding agent where its judgment matters most: understanding the task, shaping the plan, and reviewing the result.

Cursor Delegate is the MCP bridge that lets Claude Code, ChatGPT/Codex, Copilot — or any MCP client — hand implementation to Cursor's CLI agent, then get a clean, structured result back for review.

🧠 Frontier quality, kept

Your assistant does what frontier models are for: understands the task, writes a precise brief, reviews the finished diff. Composer 2.5 runs the implementation loop under that brief. The bundled skill puts the review step in the loop — the agent that scoped the work reads the changed files back before reporting.

⚡ Done faster

Composer 2.5 is built for throughput on multi-file edits. The whole delegation is one call — brief in, result out — so you review a finished diff instead of babysitting edits landing file by file.

🔋 Your limits stop being the bottleneck

Composer and Grok draw from the Cursor Models usage pool, separate from third-party model usage on supported Cursor plans. Your Claude or Codex subscription handles the brief and review while Cursor runs the implementation. If you pay per token on API, implementation moves onto the Cursor capacity you already have.

Features

• 🤝 Native plugins — install into Claude Code, ChatGPT/Codex, or GitHub Copilot CLI and just say "delegate this to Cursor". The shared skill teaches your agent how to delegate well.
• 💬 No stalled runs — if Cursor needs to clarify, it ends the turn and returns the question as a normal result. Your agent reads it and answers by resuming the same session — nothing blocks on a modal waiting for input.
• 📦 Clean, named results — final answer, changed files, session id, and the plan, returned as one compact JSON payload. Nothing to scrape.
• 📋 Plan first — plan mode: Cursor drafts a plan, you review it, then the same session implements it.
• 🔍 Ask anything — ask mode: Q&A over your codebase.
• 🩺 Self-diagnosing — a doctor tool that tells you exactly what's missing if setup isn't right.
• 🔌 Portable — plain stdio MCP, so it runs anywhere: VS Code, JetBrains, Windsurf, Visual Studio, OpenCode, Antigravity, and more.
