Cursor launches Annotate in design mode: give agents visual prompts by editing the page
soleio · x · 2026-11-01
Cursor released Annotate, a new capability in its design mode that lets developers give agents visual prompts: click to edit elements, draw annotations directly on the page, and review designs at different screen sizes.
Dan Hollick, a longtime IDE holdout, explained the pain point: tweaking CSS padding by hand used to be faster than describing it to an agent. Design mode now lets you tweak CSS, edit copy, and batch multiple design edits together for the agent to apply at once.
