victor_explore · x · 2026-08-12
Cursor recently dropped a new tool called Grokbot, which is being hailed as the most "agent native" tool yet. It allows users to create specialized AI agents for various tasks such as email management, content creation, and software development.
These agents can be hooked up to enterprise apps like Slack, Linear, and Gmail. Furthermore, each agent is provisioned with its own cloud computer, enabling them to run automations autonomously and even message each other to collaborate on getting work done.
