Cursor: a practical introduction

What we’ll cover

Working with a coding agent from a feature brief to a tested change. This is an article outline; the full guide and hands-on examples are coming soon.

Getting started

• Giving the agent useful codebase context.
• Planning edits and reviewing the resulting diff.
• Running checks and deciding when the work is ready.

Where it fits

To research: which tasks suit Cursor, the setup involved, and where a person needs to stay involved.
