Claude Code

Cursor

  1. Cursor CLI 2026.10.08

    Auto-review now asks before recursive, force, wildcard, or mirror deletes whose target could resolve differently than written. Claude Opus 5.5 and Sonnet 5.5 can be selected for AWS Bedrock bring-your-own-key setups, and /skills warns when a skill breaks the Agent Skills limits.
