Cursor 3 vs 2? Thoughts?

Been vibe coding a while and curious what're your thoughts on the new Cursor 3 vs the previous ones (v2)? Seems like the agent window is for newbies and non-coders?

Cursor version three builds directly on the tools in version two by making the agent smarter at understanding your full project so it can help you even if you already know how to code and have been using vibe coding for some time now.

Update your setup to Cursor three and open the agent window right away.
Test it on a small task from your current work to compare.

Cursor 3 gives you a better way to use agents by putting them in one window where many can run at once.

  • Upgrade your Cursor app to get the new version.
  • Open the agents window with Cmd Shift P then type Agents Window.
  • Run one agent on a fix and another on tests to see them work side by side.

You stay in charge and switch back to the old editor view anytime.

Looks like an attempt to compete with Codex with a simpler interface. Personally for me I still use the editor window as I need terminal access and ocassionally modifying files.
