Cursor Background Composer

This MCP server provides programmatic access to Cursor's Background Composer functionality, enabling AI assistants to create, manage, and monitor automated coding tasks within Cursor's development environment. Built with TypeScript using Express, Axios, and the MCP SDK, it offers tools for creating background composers with custom task descriptions and repository URLs, listing active composers with status information, checking user settings like web access and privacy modes, and retrieving detailed composer information including diffs and changes. The implementation includes both CLI tooling and GitHub Actions workflow integration for automatic issue-to-composer triggering, making it valuable for automating code generation workflows, managing multiple coding tasks, and building AI-powered development assistance that can spawn and track background coding agents within the Cursor IDE ecosystem.
