Fix in Cursor is a Chrome extension designed for developers who use Cursor AI and collaborate on GitHub. Its main purpose is to streamline the process of addressing pull request feedback by directly linking GitHub comments to the Cursor AI coding environment with full context.
When working on pull requests, developers often receive comments requesting code changes. Manually copying comment context and crafting prompts for AI assistance like Cursor can be disruptive. This extension solves that problem by automatically generating a ready-to-use prompt, saving time and reducing context-switching between GitHub and the development environment.
The core feature is adding a "Fix in Cursor" button to every comment in a GitHub pull request. This button is seamlessly integrated into the GitHub interface, appearing alongside standard comment actions. Clicking this button triggers the next key capability: it opens the user's Cursor application directly.
Upon opening Cursor, the extension automatically populates the AI chat with a comprehensive prompt. This prompt includes the exact text of the GitHub comment that was clicked. Crucially, it also includes surrounding conversation context from the pull request thread, presented from oldest to newest to maintain narrative flow.
The generated prompt specifically references the relevant code file and line numbers mentioned in the comment. For example, it formats the context as "@src/utils/hello-world.ts:19-21", providing Cursor with precise location data. This structured prompt instructs Cursor to verify the issue exists and then fix it based on the provided standards or requests.
The product works by injecting a script into GitHub pages when viewed in the Chrome browser. It detects pull request comment sections and programmatically adds the custom button. When clicked, it uses a deep link protocol (cursor://) to launch the Cursor desktop application. The extension bundles the comment text, thread history, and code location into a URL parameter that Cursor can parse and use to pre-fill its chat interface.
Benefits for users include significantly faster iteration on pull request feedback, as there is no manual copying of comments or code references. It reduces errors from missing context by automatically including the full conversation. Developers can maintain their flow state by staying within their coding environment rather than juggling browser tabs and manually constructing AI prompts.

A primary use case is when a reviewer comments on a pull request line, suggesting a naming convention change like "can we make these camelCase to match our standards?". The developer can click the button, which opens Cursor with a prompt containing that comment and the file/line reference, allowing immediate AI-assisted refactoring. Another scenario is addressing multiple, sequential comments in a thread, where having the full conversation history helps Cursor understand the evolving requirements.
The target users are developers who use both GitHub for code collaboration and Cursor AI as their integrated development environment. It requires the Chrome browser and the Cursor desktop application. There are no complex integrations or tech stack requirements beyond installing the extension. Pricing is simple: free for unlimited use on public repositories, and a one-time $3.99 lifetime license for private repositories after a 3-day free trial. No account or subscription is needed; activation uses a secure magic link.
In summary, Fix in Cursor eliminates friction between code review and AI-assisted implementation by creating a direct bridge from GitHub comments to actionable Cursor prompts with all necessary context included.
The primary target audience is developers who use the Cursor AI integrated development environment and collaborate on code via GitHub pull requests. These users are typically software engineers, developers, or engineering teams who want to streamline their workflow between receiving code review feedback and implementing changes with AI assistance. They value productivity tools that reduce manual steps and context-switching. The extension is specifically for Chrome browser users who have the Cursor desktop application installed.
