Cursor - Mobb Tracy Setup Guide

This guide walks you through setting up Mobb Tracy with Cursor IDE to track AI-generated code in your pull requests.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

  • Cursor IDE installed on your machine

  • A GitHub repository where you'll be making pull requests

  • A Mobb account (sign up at https://app.mobb.ai)

Installation

Step 1: Install the Cursor IDE Extension

  1. Open Cursor IDE

  2. Navigate to the Extensions marketplace

  3. Search for "Mobb AI Tracer"

  4. Click Install

  5. A browser window will automatically open, prompting you to sign up or sign in to the Mobb platform using GitHub, Google, or email/password.

  6. After signing in, you’ll be asked to grant Cursor access to your Mobb account. Once approved, Tracy will begin securely collecting AI interaction data from Cursor.

  1. Visit the Mobb platform: https://app.mobb.ai

  2. Click the robot icon on the left sidebar:

  3. Select Configure GitHub App in the top-right corner.

  4. Choose the repositories where you want to enable Tracy (or select All repositories).

  5. That’s it! Tracy will now annotate your pull requests automatically.

Step 3: Seeing Tracy in Action

  1. Open Cursor in a repository where Tracy is enabled.

  2. Make changes to the code - using the AI agent, manual edits, or both.

  3. Commit the changes and create a pull request.

  4. If any part of the code was AI-generated, Tracy will post a PR comment letting you know that AI code analysis is ready with some more insights:\

  5. Click the link in the comment to open Tracy’s detailed view:

  6. Select any AI-generated line to see:

    • The prompts used to generate that line

    • The full conversation context behind it

This gives you complete transparency into how AI contributed to your code.
