Hmm, now that we have the prompts, would it be possible to reimplement Cursor servers and have a fully local ( ahem pirated) version?
Or you could just use Cline / Roo Code which are better for agentic coding and open source anyway...

presumably their apply model is run on their servers I wonder how hard it would be to build a local apply model/surely that would be faster on a macbook

#33Cursor is the only product that I have cancelled in 20+ years due to a lack of customer service response. Emailed them multiple times over weeks about billing questions -- not a single response. These weren't like VS code questions , either -- they needed Cursor staff intervention. No problem getting promo emails though! The quicker their 'value' can be spread to other services the better, imo. Maybe the next group w…

Mail to is replied by “Sam from Cursor” which is “Cursor's AI Support Assistant” and after few back and forth it tells “I'm connecting you with a teammate who can better investigate”. Guess what? It’s been a month and no further communication whatsoever.
I don’t have high hopes for its customer services.

Super weird. It never did this to my defaults. Why would it do to some users and not others? Terrible behavior. Surprised Mac even allows a program to simply overwrite such settings.
