Cursor can now build live apps and share them with a link
Cursor announced that a cloud agent can now build an app, set up a database and authentication, and deploy it for sharing via a link. Apps go live only after passing security checks and being explicitly published; the feature is available on all paid plans with cloud agents enabled.
Cursor announced on November 6, 2026 (Singapore time) that users can now build live apps directly in Cursor and share them with a link.
To start, users kick off a cloud agent (an AI assistant that writes code and runs tasks in the cloud) and tell it explicitly that they want to build an app. According to Cursor, it will scaffold the web app, spin up a Postgres database if needed, set up authentication behind Cursor SSO (single sign-on, one account for multiple systems), and provision hosting. If the app needs to connect to the user's own systems, such as a data warehouse, Cursor will ask for the secrets it needs. When publishing, users pick a unique domain and get back a live link.
Apps can be deployed from new or existing repos on Cursor Origin and GitHub. Cursor says support for other git providers such as GitLab is coming soon.
Before an app is published, Cursor runs deterministic and agentic security checks to catch common issues such as secrets written in app files or exposed credentials. If a check fails, the agent tells the user what to fix. Nothing goes live until the checks pass and the user explicitly publishes the app. Team admins can see every app and secret on the team, add their own rules to the security review, approve publishes the review blocked, and unpublish any app.
Once live, an app can be shared with specific people, groups or the entire team, all behind Cursor sign-in. On individual plans, apps can also be shared publicly. Users can also provision a Cursor API key so a script or Grok Bot can use their app.
The feature is now available on all paid plans with cloud agents enabled; users need to update Cursor to try it.
