Install

What it does

First-party plugins include deep branch review, parallel cloud agents, plugin scaffolding and the Cursor SDK. A separate group connects third-party services: GitHub, Playwright, Gmail, Google Drive, HubSpot, Salesforce, BigQuery and more.
Who it is for. For Cursor users and authors who want to build a plugin following the official layout.
