Tip: Kick Off a Cursor Agent by Reacting to a Slack Message With an Emoji

Cursor·medium signal

Cursor Automations lets you trigger an agent from a designated Slack emoji reaction, a codebase change, or a timer — no prompt required. Practical uses: emoji-react a bug report to auto-triage it, schedule a weekly 'summarize changes' agent, or run a nightly deep security-audit pass. Scope the automation's permissions tightly since it runs unattended.
