Show HN: CursorBird – Flap some wings while Cursor's agent is generating code
Hi HN! Creator of CursorBird here.
I've recently built and published a fun side project I think you might enjoy:
It's a simple Cursor extension that lets you play a flappy bird clone while the agents are running.
It uses Cursor's hook system to detect agent activity: the game automatically opens when an agent starts working and closes when all agents finish.
Press Tab to flap.
100% open source.
Repo: https://github.com/i-am-noamg/cursorbird https://github.com/i-am-noamg/cursorbird
Install: https://open-vsx.org/extension/cursorbird/cursor-bird https://open-vsx.org/extension/cursorbird/cursor-bird or from Cursor's extensions search
It started as a funny idea but turns out it does a pretty good job with keeping me from constantly doomscrolling every time I have to wait for the agent to finish its task.
Let me know what you think!
- oztamir 10mo agoSo an open-source version of ChadIDE? :-)
- iamnoamg 10mo agoTold them I'm waiting for my acceptance letter as well https://x.com/cursorbird_/status/1991530623253770535?s=20 https://x.com/cursorbird_/status/1991530623253770535?s=20 But yea the extension was almost done when they published that nonsense in YC so I guess you can say we're direct competitors :P
