It supports repos, pull requests, code browsing, and two-way GitHub sync where GitHub remains the source of truth for synced repos. Integrations with Vercel (preview deployments per PR), Depot, and Buildkite (CI) are already live, with 'agent-native features' promised soon. Why: If you already pay for Cursor, you can now create repos directly in Cursor and connect Vercel/Depot/Buildkite for PR previews and CI without leaving the IDE—but this is early beta with no agent-native features yet, so don't migrate production repos off GitHub. Evaluate whether the Vercel preview-per-PR integration saves your team review time before committing. developer-tools code-hosting cursor github-alternative
