Markdown https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/t3-code.md · JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/tools/t3-code.json\n- Best agent harnesses and coding agents: https://www.anchorterminal.com/best/agent-harnesses/index.md\n- All 1500 harnesses comparisons: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/agent-harnesses/index.md\n\n## Which one, for what\n\n### Cursor CLI (F)\n\nGood for: Teams already on Cursor who want the same agent and rules in a terminal or CI and a hand-off to Cloud Agents.\n\nAhead on:\n- Security \u0026 auth, 46 against 35\n- Transparency \u0026 trust, 60 against 51\n\nAlso in its favour:\n- Free to start without a card\n\nWatch for: No CLI changelog, and versions are dates\n\n### T3 Code (D)\n\nGood for: Developers who want one app, including on their phone, to drive several coding agents they already pay for.\n\nAhead on:\n- Reliability, 43 against 27\n- Schema \u0026 documentation, 55 against 39\n- Agent ergonomics, 60 against 42\n- Payments \u0026 pricing, 60 against 25\n- Maintenance \u0026 community, 75 against 62\n\nAlso in its favour:\n- No key needed to call it\n- Open source\n- No incidents deducted, where Cursor CLI loses 5 points for them\n\nWatch for: Usage data on by default, with hashed OpenAI and Claude account identifiers, and relay traces to Axiom\n\n\n## Why the edge\n\n### Payments \u0026 pricing: T3 Code +35\n\n- Cursor CLI (25): Harness reading of the published rubric. No payment protocol (0). Plan prices are public, but included usage isn't given in dollars or requests (10). Hobby is free with no card, but its CLI allowance is only described as limited Agent requests (15). A person signs in through a browser to use it or to get an API key (0).\n- T3 Code (60): Free self-hosted software with nothing to buy, so 0 for a protocol and 20 each for public pricing, a free tier and onboarding with no sign-up, 60.\n\n### Agent ergonomics: T3 Code +18\n\n- Cursor CLI (42): Framework reading, adapted to a harness driven by a pipeline. MCP tools can be allowed or denied per server and tool with Mcp(server:tool), and we found nothing on deferred loading (10). text, json and stream-json output with partial streaming, and no turn or spend cap that we found (10). No documented error format or exit codes (5). `--resume` and `--continue` (12). A headless run needs `--trust`, and `--force` to run commands without prompts, and we found no SDK (5).\n- T3 Code (60): Harness reading. Remote control from phone or browser, portable handoffs between providers and managed policies for teams (60).\n\n### Reliability: T3 Code +16\n\n- Cursor CLI (27): Local-package reading. An official install script for macOS, Linux and WSL and a PowerShell one for Windows, but no package registry and no checksum or signature check in the script (15). No public CI or test suite, since the source isn't published (0). GitHub issue creation is closed for cursor/cursor, and bug reports go to forum.cursor.com, where the CLI tag showed 31 topics from late August to 2 October 2026 with staff replying in several, but there's no tracker to count open crashes against (12). Date-based versions (2026.09.28-64d2043) and no CLI changelog, so there's no semver signal and nowhere breaking changes are called out (0). Not 1.0 and not declared stable. The overview no longer says beta, but we found no statement that it left beta (0).\n- T3 Code (43): Local software. An install script and desktop and mobile apps from the vendor (20). ci.yml and windows-tests.yml run on the repository; pass state not read (15). GitHub issues and pull requests weren't read (GitHub's pages refuse these sessions), so that line is scored absent (0). Stable tags v0.1.5 to v0.1.7 with many nightlies, no changelog file (8). Version 0.1.7 (0). 20 + 15 + 0 + 8 + 0 = 43.\n\n### Schema \u0026 documentation: T3 Code +16\n\n- Cursor CLI (39): Framework reading. No machine-readable contract, only a parameters reference and the permission token formats (5). cursor.com/llms.txt lists the CLI pages with Markdown twins (10). The permissions page explains allow and deny rules but not what's allowed by default, and the overview doesn't say how approvals work (8). Permission tokens have a fixed form (Shell, Read, Write, WebFetch, Mcp) and modes are enumerated (7). Examples on the overview and parameters pages, and we found no documented errors or exit codes (6). No CLI changelog, and versions are dates (3).\n- T3 Code (55): Harness reading. User docs in the repository (managed policy, handoffs, providers, telemetry), AGENTS.md for contributors, a server other clients connect to (55).\n\n### Maintenance \u0026 community: T3 Code +13\n\n- Cursor CLI (62): Version 2026.09.28-64d2043, dated 28 September 2026 (30). Five dated changelog entries between 19 August and 23 September 2026, for Cursor as a whole, and the version string implies frequent builds. Judgement call, since none of the entries is CLI-only (20). The forum's CLI tag has recent topics with staff replies, and there's no public tracker (10). No SDK found (0). No public CI, and an installer without integrity checks (2).\n- T3 Code (75): Commits and nightly tags on 6 November 2026 (30). More than three releases in 90 days (20). GitHub issues and pull requests weren't read (GitHub's pages refuse these sessions), so that line is scored absent (0). Current official apps and install script (15). CI on push (10). 30 + 20 + 0 + 15 + 10 = 75.\n\n### Security \u0026 auth: Cursor CLI +11\n\n- Cursor CLI (46): Framework reading (telemetry defaults, approvals, guardrails, sandboxing), five lines. We found no description of what the CLI sends home. Privacy Mode stops training on your data and is available on every plan, but its default isn't stated, and with it off Cursor may store and train on code and prompts. Headless runs use a long-lived API key (8). Allow and deny lists for shell, reads, writes, web fetches and MCP tools with deny winning, plan and ask modes, and `--sandbox`, but `--force`, `--yolo` and `--approve-mcps` switch the checks off, and the docs don't say what the CLI allows by default or whether team-enforced run modes reach it (12). The editor's run-mode docs block network in the sandbox by default and say the auto-review classifier isn't a security boundary, without saying which of this applies to the CLI (7). Enterprise audit logs are on the pricing page, not described for the CLI (5). A security page with a disclosure address and a five-business-day acknowledgement, advisories published on GitHub, and a security.txt contact, but no bug bounty that we found (14). SOC 2 and ISO 27001 aren't scored on the framework reading.\n- T3 Code (35): Harness reading. Product usage events go by default to ingest.t3.codes and PostHog, with hashed identifiers for your T3 Connect, OpenAI and Claude accounts, and relay traces to Axiom, which can include machine names and error text. Off with T3CODE_TELEMETRY_ENABLED=false or a managed policy. Disclosed in docs/user/telemetry.md, not the README (10 of 30). Permission modes and managed policies (12 of 20). No prompt-injection guidance (5). No audit log (5). No security policy file found (3). 10 + 12 + 5 + 5 + 3 = 35.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Cursor CLI | T3 Code | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 27 | 43 | T3 Code +16 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 39 | 55 | T3 Code +16 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 42 | 60 | T3 Code +18 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 46 | 35 | Cursor CLI +11 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 25 | 60 | T3 Code +35 |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 62 | 75 | T3 Code +13 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 60 | 51 | Cursor CLI +9 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | -5 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **35.4 · F** | **51.9 · D** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Cursor CLI | T3 Code |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Agent harness | Agent harness |\n| Vendor | Cursor | T3 Tools Inc. |\n| Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | no (local only) |\n| Transports | | |\n| Auth | OAuth or key | None |\n| Pricing | Freemium | Free |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | Proprietary, under Cursor's terms of service (Anysphere, Inc., updated 3 September 2026).

No CLI changelog, and versions are dates.\n\n**T3 Code.** A fast-moving open-source way to run and steer several coding agents from desktop, browser or phone, using the subscriptions you already have. It's pre-1.0, and it sends usage data by default, including hashed identifiers for your OpenAI and Claude accounts, with the opt-out documented outside the README.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Cursor CLI\n\n1. Pass `--trust` in headless runs, or the workspace prompt stops a run with no terminal\n2. Write deny rules in .cursor/cli.json before using `--force`. It runs any command they don't match\n3. Don't use `--approve-mcps` in repositories you didn't write. Two 2025 CLI advisories came through MCP\n4. Set `CURSOR_API_KEY` in CI. `agent login` opens a browser\n5. Record `agent --version` with each run. Versions are dates and there's no CLI changelog to compare against\n\n### T3 Code\n\n1. Set T3CODE_TELEMETRY_ENABLED=false before starting the server if you don't want usage events sent\n2. Install and log in to at least one provider CLI first, such as codex login or claude auth login\n3. Use a managed policy to fix settings across a team\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Cursor CLI or T3 Code?\n\nT3 Code scores 51.9 (D) on agent readiness against Cursor CLI's 35.4 (F), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. Cursor CLI leads on security \u0026 auth and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Are Cursor CLI and T3 Code open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Cursor CLI. T3 Code is open source (MIT).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cursor-cli-vs-t3-code.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cursor-cli-vs-t3-code.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"cursor-cli\", \"b\": \"t3-code\"}`.
