Cursor, built by Anysphere, says Projects is now multiplayer so a whole team can work with its agents in one workspace.

Coding agents were stuck in solo mode.

Projects is Cursor's system for directing a fleet of agents through a single coordinator that plans and delegates the work. It started as a way for one engineer to run large jobs. Now each teammate joins the same Project with their own coordinator and workers while sharing context and memory. That shift is hard because agent memory is usually tied to one person's chats and files.

You create a Project from the left-hand nav and invite teammates, Cursor says. Each person keeps a one-to-one chat with their coordinator for local context. A shared task board then shows who is doing what, what each agent is running and the PR behind each task.

The shared context system is the layer that holds requirements docs, diagrams, specs and mockups for the whole Project. It is built once and grows as the work grows. A decision made in one chat becomes available to every agent in the Project, so a new joiner does not rebuild setup from scratch.

Cursor points to on-call as proof. Several of its own teams run rotations in a shared Project. When one engineer took over from a teammate, Cursor says the new coordinator checked in first, then knew what was in flight, what was unattended and which channels, Linear boards and threads to watch.

Shared context unlocks agent-to-agent communication across teammates. If an engineer adds reviews while a designer rebuilds the product page, their coordinators spot the overlap and build reviews into the new design. If your feature reads from a database your teammate is reshaping, the agents agree on order up front so you don't end in a merge mess.

Cursor says multiplayer Projects is rolling out in beta to all users, so expect some rough edges. Early third-party coverage from CellCog frames the release as agents across a team, which matches Cursor's pitch.

Create a Project, invite your team and watch whether shared memory cuts handoff time.
