Assign PRs and bug fixes across Cursor sub-agents

A Cursor coordinator tracked incoming pull requests and live bugs, sent sub-agents after each issue, and kept the user updated along the way.

What they did
The user handed a Cursor Projects coordinator agent the broader project context and the overall goal. From there, it kept an eye on fresh PRs and production problems, routed each issue to a sub-agent for investigation and repair, and moved context between agents as needed. It also relayed updates to the user and raised questions with its own suggested answer when it had one.
How it went
Once it finished a large project, the user called the process a collaborative marathon that ended too quickly. They said they liked this approach more than the earlier agent setups they had tried.
Tips
Give the coordinator enough context up front so it can split work sensibly. Require explicit approval before any merge, deployment, or other irreversible step.

Try it yourself with Cursor

You are the coordinator for [repo]. Keep checking [monitoring tool] for incoming pull requests and production incidents. When one appears, hand it to a sub-agent to investigate and draft a fix, then report the situation back to me in a short update with any questions and your recommendation. Stop and ask for my approval before you merge, deploy, submit, delete, or otherwise make a permanent change.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
