What you'll learn

Start every ticket 90% complete

Generate PRs, architecture diagrams, and implementation plans before an engineer picks up the work.

Ship the features your team will never prioritize

PMs can own frontend changes autonomously. Learn how to push code for small fixes without handoffs.

Use MCPs to work across your tech stack

Debug production issues, prune backlogs, and ship doc updates without leaving Cursor

Turn PRDs into specs agents can execute

Store PRDs in your codebase as source of truth—then code review your specs and kick off agents from them.

Why this topic matters

Most PMs use Cursor for prototyping. But at Cursor, PMs debug production issues through Datadog, prune stale tickets via Linear, and ship frontend code—no engineering handoff. The PM role is evolving: less sprint management, more direct execution and user expertise. Hear from Cursor's own PM on the workflows that actually drive leverage.
