Capisoft.Lib.SharpCursorCli.Linux 1.0.0

SharpCursorCli

C# wrapper for the Cursor CLI agent. Run the Cursor Agent from .NET with full parameter support, streaming, and optional SQLite persistence for conversation IDs across restarts.

Requirements

• .NET 8 SDK
• Cursor CLI installed (agent on PATH or configured path)

Platform support

The library provides implementations for Windows, Linux, and macOS.

If you run SharpCursorCli successfully on Linux or macOS, please open an issue to confirm it works so we can update this section. Feedback and PRs for those platforms are welcome.

Configuration

Copy .env.example to .env and set your Cursor Agent path:

cp .env.example .env

Edit .env:

CURSOR_AGENT_PATH=C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\cursor-agent\agent.ps1

If CURSOR_AGENT_PATH is not set, the wrapper falls back to agent (or agent.cmd on Windows) on PATH.

Quick Start

using Capisoft.Lib.SharpCursorCli;

var runner = CursorAgent.CreateRunner();
var options = new AgentChatOptions()
    .WithPrint()
    .WithPrompt("List files in the current directory")
    .WithOutputFormat(AgentOutputFormat.Text);

var result = await runner.RunAsync(options);
Console.WriteLine($"SessionId: {result.SessionId}");
Console.WriteLine(result.Result);

Stream Mode

With --stream-partial-output, the CLI sends incremental assistant deltas and may also send a final full message. To avoid duplicate output, either print only deltas (AssistantMessageEvent.IsDelta) or deduplicate by skipping a full message that matches already-printed content (see Example.Stream).

var options = new AgentChatOptions()
    .WithPrint()
    .WithPrompt("Explain this codebase")
    .WithOutputFormat(AgentOutputFormat.StreamJson)
    .WithStreamPartialOutput();

await foreach (var evt in runner.RunStreamAsync(options))
{
    if (evt is AssistantMessageEvent assistant when !string.IsNullOrEmpty(assistant.Text))
        Console.Write(assistant.Text); // For no-duplicate output, use dedupe logic as in Example.Stream
}

Resume by Session ID

var options = new AgentChatOptions()
    .WithPrint()
    .WithResume(sessionId)
    .WithPrompt("Continue from where we left off");
var result = await runner.RunAsync(options);

Storage (SQLite)

Lightweight persistence for conversation IDs so you can resume across restarts. See Capisoft.Lib.SharpCursorCli.Storage and the examples.

var storage = new SqliteCursorAgentStorage("conversations.db");
storage.SaveConversation(result.SessionId, result.RequestId, promptPreview: "List files...");
var recent = storage.GetRecentConversations(10);

Solution Structure

Repository layout

• Library only: build from repo root with SharpCursorCli.sln.
• Examples: they reference the library via relative paths. From repo root: dotnet run --project examples/Example.RunAsync (or open examples/SharpCursorCli.Examples.sln).

Examples

Separate, minimal examples per use case are in examples/:

• Example.RunAsync – Print mode, single run, get AgentRunResult
• Example.Stream – Stream mode with IAsyncEnumerable<StreamEvent>
• Example.Resume – Resume by session ID
• Example.Storage – Save/load conversations with SQLite
• Example.FullFlow – Run → save → resume (end-to-end)

Copy .env.example to .env in the repo root (or in the example project) and set CURSOR_AGENT_PATH before running examples.

Edge cases and limitations

For known edge cases (path resolution, timeouts, cancellation, encoding, storage), see docs/EDGE_CASES.md.

Maintenance and contributions

Maintenance time for this project is limited, but issues are welcome—please open one if you hit a bug or have a question. Pull requests are appreciated when something is really needed; I’ll try to review and merge them as often as possible. I’ll also do my best to triage and address issues when I can. Thanks for your understanding.
