# Cursor

# Cursor

**Type:** Tool / AI-powered code editor.
**Canonical:** https://cursor.sh/

## Description

An AI-powered code editor with agentic features. Supports multi-model access (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), making it relevant for concurrent AI writes in dev workflows.

## Role in This Source

Mentioned as one of the multiple AI agents — alongside Claude and ChatGPT — that might simultaneously attempt to access and write to a knowledge base. This concurrent access necessitates a structured database to prevent [[concept-race-conditions-ai]], as argued in [[claim-db-better-multi-agent]].

## Why It Matters

Cursor exemplifies the *real* multi-agent reality: a single user already has 3+ AI agents potentially writing to their knowledge layer at once. The Wiki model ([[concept-ai-wiki]]) was designed for a single linear writer and breaks under this everyday workload.
