Cursor AI Introduces ‘BugBot’, ‘Memories’ Features in Big Update
Cursor, the AI-enabled coding platform built by Anysphere, has received a new set of feature updates, which the company announced on Wednesday. The platform is now called ‘Cursor 1.0’—an update over the previous 0.5 version. The platform now features automatic code review capabilities with a tool called ‘BugBot’, which can help developers catch bugs and issues. When it identifies a problem, BugBot adds a comment to the pull requests on GitHub, and developers can then revisit Cursor to resolve the issue using a pre-filled prompt. Another update brings memory features to Cursor. It can now remember facts from conversations and reference them in the future. The feature is called ‘Memories’ and is now available as a beta feature on Cursor. Cursor 1.0 is out now!Cursor can now review your code, remember its mistakes, and work on dozens of tasks in the background. pic.twitter.com/BBjNn5yJh1— Cursor (@cursor_ai) June 4, 2025 Cursor can now also implement changes directly inside Jupyter Notebook. It can create and edit multiple cells directly within Jupyter, and currently, it is only supported with Claude’s Sonnet models on the platform. Furthermore, users can now set up Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers in a single click on Cursor and authenticate them with OAuth support. The platform has curated a list of official MCP servers that developers can add to Cursor. Cursor can now also render visualisations inside a conversation. Moreover, Mermaid diagrams and Markdown tables can now be generated and viewed in one place. Besides, the previously announced Background Agent is now available for all users on the platform. “With background agents, you can spawn off asynchronous agents that can edit and run your code in a remote environment. At any point, you can view their status, send a follow-up, or take over,” Cursor said in a blog post. According to reports last month, Anysphere raised a $900 million investment, led by Thrive Capital, Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), and Accel Ventures. The investment is said to more than triple the company’s valuation to $9 billion. In January this year, the company also raised $105 million in Series B funding, led by Thrive Capital, a16z, and other existing investors. After the funding round, the company was valued at $2.5 billion. The platform also exceeded $300 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) just two years after launch, shortly after the company reached $100 million in ARR within just 21 months of launch.
