Have a bot delegate code review to a Cursor agent
A user had their bot build an app and ask a Cursor agent to review the code, while another bot works overnight on its own computer and delivers files. ·

- What they did
- The thread describes one user building an app with a bot, then asking it to have a Cursor agent review the code; after that, the bot started routing coding work to Cursor instead of coding directly. In comments, another user says they run a project-manager bot that assigns coding tasks to Cursor cloud agents and falls back to Codex/ChatGPT through GitHub when Cursor capacity is used up, while a different commenter lets Opus 5.5 code overnight on its own computer and place the resulting files on their device.
- How it went
- People in the thread say the setup can work well for coding, but the original poster and one commenter both say delegation became sticky: once Cursor was introduced, the bot kept using it and would not return to its previous direct-to-GitHub workflow.
- Worth knowing
- One commenter’s practical caution was to specify the model and turn off fast mode when using Cursor.
Try it yourself with Cursor
Review the code in [repo or branch] as a careful senior engineer. Look for bugs, security problems, missing tests, and unclear code, and list the issues ranked by severity with the file and line for each. Suggest fixes but don't change any files until I approve, and finish with a short summary of what is safe to ship.
