Cursor launches Computer Use: agents can control your computer and drive desktop apps like the iOS Simulator to test what they build
On 2026-10-23 (15:59 UTC) the official Cursor account @cursor_ai announced "Cursor can now control your computer": agents can drive desktop apps such as the iOS Simulator to test the features they build. A follow-up post says Computer Use lets agents click and type across any app on your computer, not just the browser. Cursor turns it on by itself when a task needs it, and you can also request it by @-mentioning Computer Use in your prompt; updating Cursor is enough to try it. A community changelog in September mentioned Computer Use on Mac in version 3.20.21, and this is the official launch. Supported platforms, the permission model and benchmarks were not published.
