tl;dr

brew install --cask cursor  

Slightly longer version

Cursor does rolling software updates, which means that it can take anywhere from 1 hour to many days for your version of Cursor to update itself to the latest version. Not a problem normally, but if you got sucked into the latest hype wave and want to try out a new feature but it hasn’t rolled out to yet what do you do?

Well, if you’re on a mac, you use homebrew! Homebrew has a cask subcommand that can install mac apps, and Cursor updates their homebrew formula as soon as they push out a release, even before the rolling update rolls it all the way out. If the command above isn’t installing the most recently announced version of Cursor, try doing brew update first and then re-running brew install --cask cursor to sync your brew installation’s formula metadata with the latest version.
