At Compile, Michael Truell showcased the new Composer—featuring their proprietary 1.5T parameter model, trained from scratch by Cursor using over 100,000 Nvidia GPUs from SpaceX/xAI. In his view, Cursor is no longer just "a better VS Code with a chat", but a platform for agentic programming.
The model may also become available in Grok Build.

Presentations are gradually being uploaded to the official YouTube channel. These are short 10 to 25-minute talks focusing not on "AI replacing programmers," but on how the nature of work is shifting: agent memory, infrastructure for parallel agents, the roles of PMs and senior engineers, training, and quality assurance.
In addition to agent workflows and memory, there are sessions covering note-taking, representation of thoughts, development environments, agency in language, intelligence efficiency, the shifting role of the engineer, and other non-technical topics.
Origin — GitHub for Agents

Notably, the most intriguing announcement is Origin, Cursor's new Git platform. On their website, they refer to it as "Git for agents." During the presentation, Origin was explicitly introduced as an agent-native Git platform, ultimately positioned as the beginning of direct competition with GitHub.
Here, agents can interact with repositories, create and handle PRs, respond to comments, fix CI failures, resolve merge conflicts, and ping human developers only when absolutely necessary.
Currently, Origin is active for internal use, while a waitlist has been opened for the public.
