Cursor now has a mobile app for guiding your coding agent on the go

I love guiding my coding agents on the go, can't wait to guide my agents on the go with this app.

I hate typing and reading long text on my phone. Not for me, thanks. But since the loopmaxxers are neither prompting nor reading anymore, it kinda makes sense.

I love and hate this feature. I use it all the time with Claude, and find it super useful. At the same time I wish it didn’t exist so I was unable to continue to do work away from my computer. Kinda like the days before mobile phone and when you left the office work mostly ended.

This seems like a recipe for bad code I dunno. How would someone using this app test as they go? Agentic coding sorta works for me because you can stop and test each iteration and pinpoint where something has gone wrong. Example: I ask for a tweak, it give me 20 lines, I test for the intended behavior and keep working on those 20 lines until I'm happy with the reliability/effects of it. But that loop itself requires a environment in which the final product will be running and takes up most the time in my expirence.

As someone who has consciously worked towards being more present in the moment and regularly pushes back on client expectations of always being available tools like this remind me that a nightmare hellscape of work is more than possible.

The only use case I see for this is for hotfixing while away from your computer. Other than that it seems irrational for me to use it.

I just want to know how the avg. dev is using these things. I feel like it's a completely different world, and all the noise is from luddites, or spotify pushing 45000 deployments to prod per day. It's so far from the days of you should try git because it's distributed, or intellij because it has great intellisense, or vscode cuz it's fast - where the value proposition was obvious and understandable.

How long before someone builds an ssh/rsh type shell experience on top and project it as "natural language shell" for dummies.
