Why it matters
This is the classic promise of AI agents: a helper that handles errands and reminders on your behalf. Real cases like this show how close that promise is today. It is one of 50 sightings filed under Personal Assistant on Agent Sightings (number 38 by interest), and one of 30 involving Cursor.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Cursor or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
Review code merged in the last 24 hours. Identify missing test coverage, add tests following existing conventions without changing production behavior unless required, run the relevant targets, and open a PR.
Tip: Start small: run it once on a low-stakes example, read what the agent did, and only then let it run on real work.
