Talk with Cursor agents while they code
Cursor added realtime voice chat for agents in the Agents Window, IDE, web and iOS. The voice agent can hand coding work to the current agent, read diffs and runs, search that agent's history, and keep the spoken conversation going while work runs.

EDITORIAL TAKEAWAY
Use voice chat for short direction and status checks, then inspect the written diff and test results before accepting changes. It is a two-way call, not the separate speech-to-text dictation feature.
Before you try it
- Available in the Agents Window, IDE, web and Cursor for iOS after updating Cursor.
- On iOS, Siri can start a new Cursor voice call and a Live Activity can mute or end it.
- Voice chat uses Grok Voice; Cursor says Privacy Mode provides zero data retention for voice chat.
A small next step
Our suggested way to explore the change.
- Open an idle agent chat and clear the input.
- Select the waveform button labeled Start voice chat and allow microphone access.
- Describe one bounded change, ask for a spoken progress update, then review the resulting diff and checks in writing.
