/update

Updates Cursor Agent to the latest version directly from the running session.

/update updates the CLI in place without leaving the session. The same thing also works via agent update in the terminal.

✅ WHEN TO USE IT?

Want to use a new feature from the changelog

/update — then restart the session to load the new version

⛔ WHEN NOT TO?

In the middle of a critical, running task

Updating mid-task can disturb the state of the current session.

Better: Push the update to after the task is done, or run agent update separately in the terminal
