GitHub Action to fetch the latest Cursor Linux AppImage and create a release.
Cursor on Linux:
- ❌ Doesn’t auto-update
- ❌ Isn’t hosted at a fixed URL
- ✅ Has an API with the latest version info
This makes it hard for Linux users to keep Cursor up to date & this action solves that by:
- Querying Cursor’s API for the latest version
- Checking if that version already exists as a GitHub release
- If not, downloading the AppImage and publishing a release
Linux users can then update via GitHub releases, scripts, or package managers using a consistent URL.
To automate updates for your Cursor AppImage on Linux, use Gear Lever. It supports update sources like GitHub releases and static URLs. Configure the update URL based on your system architecture:
-
x86_64
https://github.com/udit-001/cursor-linux-release/releases/download/*/Cursor-*-x86_64.AppImage
-
ARM64
https://github.com/udit-001/cursor-linux-release/releases/download/*/Cursor-*-aarch64.AppImage
These URLs will allow automatic fetching of the latest releases. For more detailed instructions, refer to the update guide.
