Cursor IDE is an AI-first code editor that deeply understands your whole codebase to offer natural-language coding, multi-file refactoring, and smart autocomplete. It blends project-level context with LLM-powered agents to speed up development while letting you review exactly what changes before applying them.

​
Prerequisites

Before setting up the integration, ensure you have:

​
Setup with Unbound CLI

This installs the Unbound hooks for Cursor and then quits and relaunches the IDE, printing ✅ Cursor restarted. If it cannot relaunch Cursor it prints Restart Cursor instead, and you restart it yourself.
A Warn policy does not stop the call on Cursor: the command runs under Cursor’s normal flow, and the warning is recorded and passed to the agent as context. Use Block to stop it, or Require Slack Approval to put a person in the loop — the first attempt is denied with a message telling the developer to approve in Slack, and the agent’s retry waits for the answer.
To remove the Unbound configuration:

Usage

​
Basic Usage

After setup, Cursor’s own actions are checked against your policies before they run. The hooks cover twelve points in Cursor’s workflow: Matching actions are blocked, audited or sent for Slack approval inline, before the action runs.

Security Benefits

Using Cursor with Unbound Security AI Gateway provides:
  • Request Monitoring: Every prompt, shell command, file read, file edit and MCP call is logged
  • Analytics: See which files are most touched by AI through coding agents
  • Compliance: Ensure AI interactions meet your organization’s standards
  • Audit Trail: Complete visibility into AI usage patterns
