cursor Cloud Agents Start 3x Faster with Builds

Agents do their best work when they start in a ready environment: repos cloned, dependencies installed, and your install script already run. This release introduces builds : ready-to-use copies of your development environment that Cursor prepares in the background. Agents boot into a ready environment instead of setting up from scratch each session. Builds are included with Cloud Agents at no additional cost.
