Improvements to Cursor in Slack

Anysphere, Friday, July 17th, 2026

Cursor's Slack integration now plans before executing, works across multiple repositories, and can pull context from other channels.

Cursor shipped an update to its Slack integration that has the agent present a plan before executing a task and post status updates as work progresses. Slack formatting was reworked to use compact footer links in place of buttons, reducing message clutter.

The agent can now operate across multiple repositories in a single task, automatically selecting the right environment and allowing mid-task repository switching. It can also read other Slack channels and threads to gather context and post progress updates where relevant.
