The July 10 release adds durable, at-mentionable branch conversations you spin off with /side or /btw that carry context from the main thread, plus command-palette search across thousands of agent transcripts via a local index (Cursor Changelog). The bigger deal is the hooks: beforeSubmitPrompt, afterAgentResponse, afterAgentThought, stop, and subagentStart now fire on cloud agents. That's the cloud analogue to Claude Code's SubagentStop, and it's what you need to build self-correcting loops on remote agents.
