What Cursor Origin is

Cursor Origin is a git forge for storing and sharing code, currently in early beta with access opening in stages. Users can create Origin repositories and use standard Git to clone, push, and pull. They can also mirror GitHub repositories and open, review, and merge pull requests, with views of timelines, commits, checks, and changed files. Teams can browse and search code in a browser, while Cursor agents, automations, and cloud agents can work with Origin repositories.

A command-line tool supports repository creation, cloning, and GitHub mirroring. The public REST API lets apps and tools work with repositories, commits, checks, pull requests, and app installations. Listed integrations include GitHub mirroring and Origin Apps, with Vercel, Depot, and Buildkite available. Origin follows the Privacy Mode of the team or individual that owns a repository namespace. Pro with Origin code storage is $20 a month; Teams is $40 a month. For GitHub mirrors, pushes are rejected because GitHub remains the source of truth. During beta, claimed codebase namespaces cannot be changed or updated.

Who it suits

Origin suits teams and developers who want Git-based code storage, pull requests, and browser code search. It may also suit teams connecting repositories to Cursor agents or supported integrations, if they can access the staged beta.

What it does well

  • Uses standard Git for clone, push, and pull.
  • Supports pull-request review and merging.
  • Includes a public REST API and CLI.
  • Supports GitHub mirroring and listed integrations.
  • Pro with Origin code storage is $20 a month.

What to know first

  • Early beta access is opening in stages.
  • Git pushes to GitHub mirrors are rejected.
  • Claimed namespaces cannot be changed during beta.
  • No built-in CI/CD.

Getting started

  1. Visit cursor.com/origin.
  2. Check whether access is available as Origin is opening in stages.
  3. Choose a plan that includes Origin code storage, such as Pro at $20 a month or Teams at $40 a month.
  4. Create an Origin repository through Origin or its CLI, or mirror a GitHub repository.
  5. Clone the repository and use standard Git, or connect Cursor agents, automations, or cloud agents.

Verdict

Origin combines repository hosting with pull requests, code browsing, and API access, but it remains in staged early beta. GitHub mirrors cannot accept pushes from Origin, and claimed namespaces are fixed during beta.
