agentaicodecodercursorextensionidevscode
In short, this project tries to replicate the core Cursor experience directly within VS Code. OpenCursor is an open-source AI coding agent extension that features agentic chat, semantic search, and MCP support. It allows developers to plug in multiple LLM providers, including local options like Ollama and llama.cpp.
The hard part of building a coding assistant is not the chat interface, but the deep integration with repository context and local model ecosystems. This tool is built for developers who want a Cursor-like workflow without being locked into a single commercial vendor, giving them the flexibility to use their own models.
