Cursor moves to a single persistent thread with subagents

I'm convinced Cursor just shipped the biggest UX shift in AI coding this year. Starting a fresh chat every time you needed something done was so dumb. You'd explain the same project context over and over. Now it's just one persistent thread. One agent that actually remembers your project and runs subagents underneath to get work done. Give this six months and starting a new chat for every task will feel ancient.
