Cursor now has a built-in web browser. You can say "start my app" and it will run the dev server in a terminal and then navigate the browser to localhost:3000. It can take screenshots of the page for iterating on design, and you can send DOM elements to the... agent with prompts!show more

reminds me of this

Oh nice, yeah that's very cool!

can it read console logs too?

wait holy crap

yall are shipping too fast. need screen cap as well. 5s videos speaks a millions words

Yeah this would really helpful for subtle animation issues

yep and simple interactions, i think it would be a huge break thru, i tried making something but failed haha

Be honest: How much time till coding becomes obselete??

The best companies I know using AI are hiring *more* engineers. Maybe there's less manual writing of coding, but engineering is here to stay.

as someone who is not a frontend engineer, this has been one of my favorite features so far makes frontend changes so intuitive

Wow. Almost as useless as Atlas

What would you like to see us improve?

Nothing. It's VSCode but with more bugs. Sorry you made a bad investment decision. If you guys really believed in agents being the be all end all you wouldn't be wasting your time on a code editor that will be irrelevant if no one is writing code anymore.

oh wow great feature !

I can tell a leerob feature when I see one

need a bigger screen now

thanks for this

Amazing! @leerob you have a plan to add web browser on Cursor Web too?

YO. I was going to configure all this with headless browser myself with Claude Code. Will check this at the weekend

one of my favorite new features

This is awesome feature. However, when I use my app with betterAuth authentication it doesn't work.

Will be fixed in the next update 😄

Appreciate it.. we just love the new updates. Indeed its 🐐.

No more need for the playwright MCP? 🎉

this is what coding should feel like - no more alt-tabbing between terminal and browser, just pure flow state like those hacker scenes in movies where everything magically works

thanks. hopefuly now it can actually read the docs.

Insane!! Love all these new features since Cursor 2.0.

How do I get it to open inside cursor? It opens a separate chromium thing outside cursor for me?

You can pick the option when clicking the globe icon in the input. Make sure you're on the latest version!

Oh! Got it thanks.

That browser feature is a game changer, especially for taking screenshots. So much easier to iterate on designs now!

This isn't just an integrated browser. This is a completely closed feedback loop. The AI doesn't just write the code; it can launch the app, see the DOM, and understand the visual result. This is pair programming on an entirely different level.

I have problem with my app with the 'in browser app' (like instagram in browser app), do you have any solutions to iterate on this kind of bug? love cursor btw

This looks super cool, but I get this error when trying to access it. Could this be because it's accessing the box I'm on physically instead of the remote dev box it's tunneled into? I assumed it would be accessing the `localhost` where the Cursor Tunnel instance is running, but I may be incorrect.

This was really needed. No more "The button doesn't appear, try to fix it again"

amazing 🤩

love this 🙌

this is excellent

My app uses supabase auth and I had to buy an env var in place to bypass with when in dev. For some reason the built in browser would not authenticate. I spent half a day trying to figure it out and actually gave up and hacked this as a solution. Other than that it’s been awesome.

Most of the time, he doesn't know where the component is.

😍

Very annoying to use when auth is involved + the small size is unrealistic for most resolutions

This has been out for a few weeks already, no?

Was released this week with 2.0

But there was a Browser button in a the agent tab starting a few weeks ago, though. Maybe that was headless? Or I’m on the early release version and just saw it sooner. In any case, it’s a great feature and something I’ve been wanting for months. No more buggy playwright mcp.

We've had the ability to use an external browser for a few weeks! So there's more functionality now 😄
