Cursor's Bugbot Autofix now proposes pull request fixes automatically; 35% merge rate
Bugbot Autofix Now Available
Cursor has introduced Bugbot Autofix, a new capability that automatically detects and fixes issues found in pull requests. The feature leverages cloud-based agents that test changes on their own machines and propose fixes directly within your PR workflow.
How It Works
Bugbot Autofix operates in two modes:
- Review Mode: Posts a comment on the original PR with a preview of proposed fixes. Developers can merge changes using a provided
@cursorcommand for manual control. - Auto-Push Mode: Configured to directly push changes to your branch with no interaction required, streamlining the workflow for teams that prefer hands-off automation.
Early Adoption Success
Early results are encouraging—over 35% of proposed Bugbot Autofix changes are already being merged into base PRs, indicating strong adoption and confidence in the tool's accuracy.
Getting Started
To enable this feature, navigate to your Bugbot dashboard and configure your preferred autofix settings. For more details, see the Bugbot Autofix documentation.
