Cursor 3.5 brings Automations into the Agents Window (plus multi-repo and no-repo automations)

Cursor shipped a 3.5 release that makes its Automations feature easier to use day-to-day by moving it directly into the Agents Window, alongside your interactive agents.

What’s new

Cursor says this release:

• Brings Cursor Automations to the Agents Window (in addition to cursor.com/automations) (Cursor changelog)
• Lets you configure automations with multiple attached repos (Cursor changelog)
• Adds no-repo automations for workflows that monitor tools and act on signals outside of code (Cursor changelog)

New no-repo templates

Cursor also added five no-repo templates to the Marketplace:

• Slack digest agent: summarizes unread DMs + key channels and prioritizes them by importance (Cursor changelog)
• Product analytics agent: weekly digest of key metrics from a data warehouse like Databricks (Cursor changelog)
• Product FAQ agent: watches a Slack channel for questions and drafts a first response based on docs, codebase context, and past threads (Cursor changelog)
• Product finance agent: pulls billing data from a provider like Stripe for recurring revenue reports (Cursor changelog)
• Customer health agent: monitors systems like Granola, Slack, and Databricks and flags accounts where health signals are shifting (Cursor changelog)

Promo / pricing note

Cursor notes: “For the next 7 days, all agent runs for newly created automations are 50% off.” (Cursor changelog)

Why it matters

Automations are Cursor’s “always-on agent” surface area. Moving them into the Agents Window makes it more likely teams actually maintain them—because you can build, run, and supervise both interactive and scheduled/event-driven agents in one place.
