I run 3-5 Cursor cloud agents at a time. Before this I was alt-tabbing between browser tabs to check if they finished, crashed, or opened a PR.

Built a retro TUI that connects to the Cursor Agents API - shows all agents on one screen, color-coded by status. You can launch new agents, send follow-up prompts, and stop runaway ones without leaving the terminal.

npx agents-control-tower to try it. MIT, TypeScript, zero config.


I ran into a related problem. Before syncing my context files I wanted to know which ones are even worth keeping.

Turns out half my .cursor/rules were vague stuff like "follow best practices" that just wasted tokens. And my CLAUDE.md overlapped with AGENTS.md on half the instructions.

So I built a small tool that measures the token cost per file and lints for conflicts/dead weight: https://github.com/ofershap/ai-context-kit

Run `npx ai-context-kit measure` on any project and you get a per-file token breakdown. Helped me cut my context budget by ~40% without losing anything useful.
