What is Cursor?
Cursor's Agent SDK turns custom agents into code projects you can test, then deploy anywhere.
Cursor has grown from an editor into a delivery platform: Projects coordinates cloud agents, Origin hosts repos with a 20+ app marketplace, Rollouts watches deploys, and the Environments API scripts agent sandboxes. On October 20 the Agent SDK went GA. An agent is now a folder with a prompt, typed tools, skills, MCP connections and channels, tested with evals and deployed either to Cursor or to the team's own infrastructure.
What is GravityKit?
GravityKit adds Google Sheets export and Elementor calendar widget — WordPress form data reaches beyond the CMS.
GravityKit is an ecosystem of Gravity Forms extensions for WordPress (GravityView, GravityCalendar, GravityMath, GravityMigrate, GravityExport). The most recent releases add a Google Sheets live export that keeps spreadsheets in sync with Gravity Forms data, a GravityCalendar widget for Elementor, and Multiple Forms unions (stacking entries from multiple forms in a single view). Weekly 'Launch Log' releases ship 3–5 improvements and fixes across the plugin suite.
Cursor vs GravityKit: editorial side-by-side
Cursor
7.5INFRA · APIS
Cursor's Agent SDK turns custom agents into code projects you can test, then deploy anywhere.
◆ Current state
Cursor has grown from an editor into a delivery platform: Projects coordinates cloud agents, Origin hosts repos with a 20+ app marketplace, Rollouts watches deploys, and the Environments API scripts agent sandboxes. On October 20 the Agent SDK went GA. An agent is now a folder with a prompt, typed tools, skills, MCP connections and channels, tested with evals and deployed either to Cursor or to the team's own infrastructure.
◆ Where it's heading
The last month has been about opening Cursor's agent stack to outside code: partner apps write into Origin, the Environments API exposes sandboxes, and the Agent SDK lets teams build their own bots on the same runtime. Agents that wake on PR, CI, Slack, webhook and cron events push Cursor past the IDE into always-on team automation. Cursor is selling the agent runtime itself, not just its own agents.
◆ Prediction
Expect more starter templates and SDK-built agents to appear in the app marketplace, and tighter links between SDK agents and Projects or Rollouts. Whether self-hosted deploys get the same dashboard tooling as Cursor-hosted ones is not yet clear from the entries.
GravityKit
5.0INFRA · APIS
GravityKit adds Google Sheets export and Elementor calendar widget — WordPress form data reaches beyond the CMS.
◆ Current state
GravityKit is an ecosystem of Gravity Forms extensions for WordPress (GravityView, GravityCalendar, GravityMath, GravityMigrate, GravityExport). The most recent releases add a Google Sheets live export that keeps spreadsheets in sync with Gravity Forms data, a GravityCalendar widget for Elementor, and Multiple Forms unions (stacking entries from multiple forms in a single view). Weekly 'Launch Log' releases ship 3–5 improvements and fixes across the plugin suite.
◆ Where it's heading
GravityKit is expanding the data portability and presentation options for Gravity Forms users: Google Sheets export, Elementor integration, and Multiple Forms unions all extend where form data can go and how it can be displayed. The consistent weekly cadence and security hardening releases (GravityMigrate, GravityRevisions) indicate a mature plugin ecosystem in steady maintenance mode with targeted new capabilities.
◆ Prediction
The Google Sheets export is likely to gain more granular sync controls (webhook triggers, specific column mapping). Additional page builder integrations beyond Elementor are probable given the established pattern.
