Cursor shipped a Bugbot performance update for Cursor 3.7+. Average review time dropped from ~5 minutes to ~90 seconds, cost per run fell 22%, and bugs found per review improved 10% (0.56 to 0.62 per run), powered by Composer 2.5. A new /review command lets developers run Bugbot and Security Review locally before pushing, with GitHub/GitLab integration that avoids re-reviewing unchanged diffs.

Why it matters

At 90 seconds, Bugbot crosses a usability threshold fast enough to run before every push rather than as an async post-push check. Combined with /review, this shifts AI code review into the local development loop.

Importance: 2/5

3x speedup crosses pre-push usability threshold; /review integrates review into commit workflow
