This project provides a free, automated script for Windows and macOS users to obtain and maintain trial accounts for the Cursor IDE, enabling unlimited use of advanced features like Claude 4. It targets developers seeking to bypass Cursor's trial limitations without cost.

How It Works

The script automates the process of resetting machine identifiers and registering new trial accounts. It addresses a common issue where Cursor detects account switching and logs users out, ensuring persistent access. The process involves resetting machine codes and then automatically registering a new account, which can be completed in approximately 60 seconds.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Installation: Download and run the .msi installer for Windows. For macOS, download the .dmg and the "Y系列启动器" (Y Series Launcher), then run xattr -cr /Applications/YCursor.app and xattr -cr /Applications/Y系列启动器.app in the terminal.
• Prerequisites: macOS users require the "Y系列启动器". The setup involves binding to Alipay for trial registration, though no charges are incurred, and the binding can be removed post-registration.
• Documentation: Ycursor 文档 (Note: The provided link is to the main README, not a separate documentation page).

Highlighted Details

• Enables unlimited trial renewals for Cursor IDE.
• Supports using Claude 4 within Cursor.
• Automates account registration and machine code resetting.
• Claims to be the first free tool to solve account logout issues after switching.

Maintenance & Community

The project is maintained by YanCchen. Further community or support links are not explicitly provided in the README.

Licensing & Compatibility

The project is offered as completely free. No specific open-source license is mentioned, implying it may not be open-source in the traditional sense, or the license is not clearly stated. Compatibility for commercial or closed-source use is not specified.

Limitations & Caveats

The trial registration process requires binding to Alipay, which may be a concern for some users despite assurances of no charges. The project's reliance on bypassing vendor trial mechanisms carries inherent risks of future breakage if Cursor updates its security or trial policies.
