Cursor Bugbot adds local pre-push reviews
Cursor has introduced a local `/review` command that allows developers to run Bugbot and security reviews on code changes before pushing them. If a pull request is later opened with the same diff, Bugbot recognizes the local review and skips running again on CI, saving time and resources.
Shifting AI-powered reviews from CI to the local development environment represents a significant workflow improvement that catches bugs early and reduces PR noise.
* Running reviews locally allows developers to fix issues before they are pushed, keeping pull request histories cleaner.
* Deduplicating reviews via diff matching prevents unnecessary agent execution and reduces API token costs.
* This feature underscores Cursor's evolution from a simple code editor into a comprehensive AI-assisted software delivery platform.
