Summary (Chinese)
Cursor 把多 agent 写代码做成了系统工程问题:自研 VCS 承接 1,000 commits/s、共享设计文档、compile-checked reference、第三方 merge agent 仲裁、多 lens review。新 swarm 在同模型同时间预算下优于旧 swarm,所有新配置最终通过 100% sqllogictest。文章的价值在于把多 agent 协作从 prompt 问题推进到运行系统问题——瓶颈不是并发调模型,而是谁做设计决策、冲突怎么解、上下文怎么传。
Summary (English)
Cursor turned multi-agent coding into a systems engineering problem: custom VCS handling 1,000 commits/s, shared design docs, compile-checked references, third-party merge agent arbitration, multi-lens review. New swarm outperformed old swarm in all model configurations. Key insight: multi-agent collaboration is a runtime system problem, not a prompt problem.
