Current state

schema/examples/agent-stack/products/cursor.yaml is a 16-line stub. schema/examples/agent-stack/capability-profiles/cursor-default.yaml and cursor-cli-permissive.yaml exist but the CapabilityProfile NodeKind only carries default, description, overrides — it cannot express Cursor's mode taxonomy:

  • **Auto** — Cursor decides which model
  • **Plan / Plan-only** — read-only planning (analogous to Claude Code's Plan Mode)
  • **Composer** — multi-file refactor mode
  • **Manual** — human-driven only
  • **YOLO / Sandbox** mode toggles

These are all InteractionPrimitives in the v6 model, but Cursor's Profile is a *bundled selector* over them.

Desired state

  • Extend CapabilityProfile with mode: enum<auto,plan,composer,manual,custom> and parentProfile: ref<CapabilityProfile> (so Cursor's Profile-extends-Profile inheritance is expressible).
  • Add InteractionPrimitive instances for each Cursor mode with vendor: cursor.
  • Document that Cursor's Profile is the canonical reference impl for CapabilityProfile.

Evidence

  • https://cursor.com/docs (modes section — confirmed via fetch redirect)
  • packages/agent-catalog/graph/nodes/agents/ may carry richer Cursor data

Propagation status

  • Level 1: open
  • Level 2: not-started — coverage-checklist row "Capability Profile" claims Cursor-Codex divergence is captured "as separate Synonym records" — needs concrete examples

Propagation chain

  • Level 1: extend NodeKind, add 5 InteractionPrimitive examples, expand cursor.yaml example.
  • Level 2: capabilities.md gets richer mode taxonomy.

Notes

Cursor's profile mechanics are the most evolved real-world reference; v6 example is too sparse to be useful.
