Tramya vs Cursor

Cursor is an IDE. Tramya is the memory.

Cursor replaces VS Code with an agentic IDE. Tramya replaces nothing: it's the companion that captures and replays the context of all your agents — Cursor included, but also Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cline, and Hermes.

Two different product categories.

Cursor is an IDE; Tramya is an IDE-independent companion. They're complementary more than opposed.

Frequently asked questions

Does Tramya replace Cursor?

No. Tramya is an independent companion: it enriches Cursor rather than replacing it, and also works with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cline, and Hermes.

Can I use Tramya inside Cursor?

Yes, via MCP or via the public API v1. The context is available from any agent that speaks MCP.

Do my Cursor prompts flow into Tramya?

Only the ones you choose to save. Tramya siphons nothing passively.

How to add Tramya to your Cursor workflow.

Tramya installs alongside Cursor without changing a thing about your tool. Download the app (macOS, Windows, Linux): it automatically detects the local history of installed agents — Cursor, but also Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cline, and Hermes. The moment a project opens, Tramya indexes sessions by Git repo, branch, and worktree, read-only, in under five seconds.

When you switch agents, Tramya generates a context capsule — durable decisions, files touched, CLAUDE.md rules — and hands it to the next one, which picks up exactly where the previous left off. Data stays local by default; encrypted Cloud sync (Cloud and Team plans) is optional and serves to share project context across machines without sharing prompts.
