AI Agent
Key Challenges
- Designing reliable AI agent workflows
- Prompt engineering for consistent output
- Handling long-running generation tasks
Key Learnings
- Building AI agents with LLMs
- System instruction tuning
- End-to-end AI-driven automation
Overview
Build My Own Cursor is an experimental project where I attempted to recreate the core idea behind Cursor — an AI-powered coding assistant that can understand natural language instructions and generate code accordingly.
The main goal of this project was to deeply understand how AI agents work internally rather than building a production-ready tool.
Key Features
- Natural language to code generation
- Multi-step task execution
- Context-aware file modifications
- AI-powered reasoning loop
Why I Built This
I wanted to move beyond just using AI tools and actually understand:
- How Cursor-like tools think
- How instructions are translated into code changes
- How to design agent workflows
This project helped me bridge the gap between LLMs and real-world developer tools.
