Indexes the entire repository, so changing one function accounts for where it is called rather than only the open file

About the company
Cursor is made by Anysphere, founded in 2022 by four MIT graduates — Michael Truell, Sualeh Asif, Arvid Lunnemark and Aman Sanger. It is built as a fork of Visual Studio Code, and that proved decisive: a developer brings over settings and extensions and changes no habits. What separates it from editor add-ons is the repository index — the model sees where a function is called, not only the open file. The pricing table has changed several times in three years and now runs on request allowances, so a cheap plan on a heavy project runs out sooner than you expect.
