Cursor Projects, OpenAI's Agents API, and What Normies Actually Do With AI

Three signals worth connecting today: Cursor just shipped Projects, which is the clearest bet yet that long-running agentic work is becoming a core IDE primitive. OpenAI dropped the Agents API the same day, giving any developer a managed harness for exactly that kind of work. And Pieter Levels, watching from the outside, noticed that regular people aren't vibe coding at all — they're just asking ChatGPT to do it. Those three things together say something important about who the real market is and what the infrastructure needs to support.
