Security and installation

Know where the work runs. Know what crosses the wire.

FireCursor is a control plane, not a remote desktop. Local agents work in the workspace on your computer; Cursor Cloud Agents work in Cursor's cloud. In both paths, Android sends deliberate commands and receives structured results.

No screen feedNo capture, mirroring, or hosted desktop.
Two-part connection gatePairing token plus short-lived account authorization.
Secrets stay at the endpointsEncrypted Android storage and Cursor SecretStorage.

Cursor CloudOfficial Agents API

Local runs stay on your computer

Local agent runs execute through the official cursor-agent CLI, VS Code APIs, and git in your own workspace. Cloud agents you launch run in Cursor's cloud under your Cursor account.

Remote traffic uses TLS

The internet path is a temporary Cloudflare quick tunnel protected by a random pairing token. The tunnel exists only while remote control is running.

Sensitive values stay on paired endpoints

The pairing token is stored on both paired endpoints. An optional Cursor API key stays in private, backup-disabled Android storage and is sent only to Cursor over HTTPS—never to the extension.

Pairing can recover nearby

The token persists. On the same network, Android can reconnect directly, learn a rotated tunnel address, and remain paired for later remote use.

Review starts from a checkpoint

Each session records a git-tree snapshot, including untracked files, without changing your real git index. Undo takes another safety snapshot first.

Illustrated setup

Two installs. One private scan.

Create your verified FireCursor account, install both signed artifacts, then scan the private QR shown inside Cursor. Pairing survives extension restarts, so this is normally a one-time setup for each phone and computer.
