Remote control your Cursor AI coding sessions via Telegram, Gmail, and Feishu.
The Cursor Autopilot automatically captures Cursor chat summaries, pushes them to your preferred communication channels, and allows you to inject replies back into Cursor to continue or stop the coding session.
To install Cursor Autopilot directly from the Extensions Marketplace:
| 1 | Open Cursor. |
| 2 | Search for Cursor Autopilot in the Extensions Marketplace (Ctrl/CMD-Shift-X). |
| 3 | Click Install. |
| 4 | Open any project folder in Cursor. |
| 5 | Cursor Autopilot will automatically check and create the required files: .autopilot.json and .cursor/rules/after_each_chat.mdc. |
| 6 | Configure your preferred adapter (Telegram, Email, or Feishu) in the .autopilot.json file. |
Note
As a Cursor user, if you try to install from the Visual Studio Marketplace website banner you might find yourself in a state where VSCode has SpecStory installed but Cursor doesn't.
Alternatively, if you cannot find in Extension Marketplace, you can manually install the extension:
- Clone the repository and install dependencies:
git clone https://github.com/heyzgj/cursor-autopilot cd cursor-autopilot npm install
- Compile and package:
npm run compile npx vsce package
- Move to project and install extension:
code --install-extension cursor-autopilot.vsix
- Restart Cursor to activate the extension. The .autopilot.json file will be created automatically.
The extension automatically checks and creates the required files whenever you open a workspace:
- .autopilot.json - Configuration file with adapter settings
- .cursor/rules/after_each_chat.mdc - Cursor rule for capturing chat summaries
If files are missing or have incorrect content, they will be automatically created/updated.
Example .autopilot.json structure:
Simply replace the placeholder values with your actual configuration. The extension will show a warning message if configuration is needed.
The extension automatically manages the Cursor rule file at .cursor/rules/after_each_chat.mdc. This file is checked and updated every time you open a workspace to ensure it has the correct content.
Ensure that alwaysApply: true is set to guarantee the rule is always active.
- Start Chat: Initiate an AI chat session in Cursor.
- Receive Notification: Get a summary of the AI's progress on your configured external channel.
- Reply with Instructions:
- 1 = Continue AI work.
- Any other text = Send custom instructions directly to the AI.
- AI Continues: The AI in Cursor will respond based on your input.
For practical usage examples and advanced workflows, see the SETUP_GUIDE.
You can test the extension's injection functionality:
