Problem
The
update-cli-coverageworkflow invokescursor-agentwith--model ${{ vars.CURSOR_PREFERRED_MODEL }}(currentlyclaude-opus-4-8-xhigh). That model requires Cursor Max Mode, so CI fails withMax Mode Required.A fresh
cursor-agentinstall defaults tomaxMode=false. The setting must be written to the CLI config file (cli-config.json, key{"maxMode": true}). GitHub-hosted runners setXDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/runner/.config, and cursor-agent resolves its config dir asCURSOR_CONFIG_DIR || $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/cursor || ~/.cursor. So writing~/.cursor/cli-config.jsonis ignored unlessCURSOR_CONFIG_DIRis also pinned.Fix
Adds an
Enable Cursor Max Modestep immediately after the Cursor CLI install step that writes{"maxMode": true}to$HOME/.cursor/cli-config.jsonand pinsCURSOR_CONFIG_DIRvia$GITHUB_ENVso later steps (the agent invocation) read the right config.Note: this requires
CURSOR_API_KEYto be entitled for Max Mode.Made with Cursor
Note
Low Risk
Workflow-only change with no application code; depends on
CURSOR_API_KEYbeing entitled for Max Mode.Overview
Adds an Enable Cursor Max Mode step to
update-cli-coverageright after installing the Cursor CLI.The step writes
{"maxMode": true}to$HOME/.cursor/cli-config.jsonand setsCURSOR_CONFIG_DIRin$GITHUB_ENVsocursor-agentpicks up that config on GitHub-hosted runners (where default config paths would otherwise ignore~/.cursor). This unblocks the workflow’s preferred model, which requires Max Mode.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 72a1da1. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.
