    Hi, I'm Daniel from Zep. I've integrated the Cursor IDE with Graphiti, our open-source temporal knowledge graph framework, to provide Cursor with persistent memory across sessions. The goal was simple: help Cursor remember your coding preferences, standards, and project specs, so you don't have to constantly remind it. Before this integration, Cursor (an AI-assisted IDE many of us already use daily) lacked a robust way to persist user context. To solve this, I used Graphiti’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, which allows structured data exchange between the IDE and Graphiti's temporal…

    Hey HN! I'm Guojun, creator of Cursor Autopilot. Most of my day using Cursor involves babysitting—I sit there reviewing the AI agent’s output, hitting "continue," and repeating. Honestly, it's tedious, especially since those 2-minute waits always tempt me into another round of doomscrolling. So I thought: wouldn’t it be great if I could step away, grab coffee, or just relax while still managing Cursor from my phone? I quickly hacked together Cursor Autopilot, a simple extension that's now available on the Cursor Extension marketplace. It sends your Cursor chat summaries directly to Telegram…

    Hi HN, Francesco from Cua here. I hacked this project together last weekend, inspired by the Codex Computer-Use release and lessons learned from deploying GUI-operating agents for our customers. The main problem: when a UI automation process controls a desktop app today, it usually takes over the human’s session. Your cursor moves, keyboard focus gets stolen, windows jump to the front, and you have to stop working until the agent is done. That is why we have historically avoided encouraging users to run these processes directly on their host machine, instead relying on VMs or GUI containers…
