+# Cursor transport contract
+
+The transport contract every driver follows when it carries a brief to the Cursor Grok

+and recovery. Reach the route by its own name — `grok`. This file is a contract, not a
+role: it is never dispatched, and the drivers that bind it pin their own tools, model,
+effort, and permission or sandbox mode.
+
+Read `.agents/orchestration.md` first. It owns the role set, the routing, and the dispatch
+contract. Cursor is native to neither Claude Code nor Codex, so both harnesses' `grok`
+bridges bind this file.
+
+## Model
+
+```text
+CURSOR_GROK_MODEL=cursor-grok-4.6-high
+```
+
+That id was read from `agent models` on 2026-08-13. Resolve the model from the variable at
+dispatch. Re-read `agent models` and update this line when the id changes. Never guess or
+substitute a model id.
+
+## Invocation
+
+Resolve the CLI in this order, verifying with `--version` before first use:
+
+1. bare `agent`, on a POSIX host;
+2. on Windows, the versioned entry under `"$LOCALAPPDATA/cursor-agent/versions/"` — take the
+   newest directory and invoke its own `node.exe` against its `index.js` directly.
+
+Launch an unattended run through the versioned entry, never through `agent`, `agent.cmd`, or
+`agent.ps1` on Windows. Those shims delegate to `cursor-agent.ps1`, which sets the console window
+title and can abort with Win32 `0xE9` when no console is attached. The failure is intermittent, so a
+shim that answered once does not clear it, and when it does fire it leaves only a PowerShell
+`SetConsoleWindowTitle` trace — which reads as a bench that returned nothing rather than as a launch
+that never happened. The versioned entry has no console dependency and no such failure mode.
+
+Read an empty shim run as a launch failure until its `.err` journal is checked for that
+trace.
+
+## Journal the launch
+
+Create `tmp/cursor/` first. Write any brief longer than a couple of sentences to
+`tmp/cursor/<unit>-brief.md` and make the prompt a pointer to it; briefs never travel as
+fragile shell arguments. Every run journals its event stream, so the user can tail progress
+live and an interrupted run leaves its partial distillate on disk:
+
+`<resolved-entry> -p --trust --mode=ask --model "$CURSOR_GROK_MODEL" --output-format stream-json "<pointer>" > tmp/cursor/<unit>.jsonl 2> tmp/cursor/<unit>.err`
+
+Write that chain to `tmp/cursor/run.sh` and run the file, so the resolution, the model, and the
+journalling are one artifact the next run reuses.
+
+A driver pinned `workspace-write` writes the brief and the run script itself. A driver pinned
+`read-only` writes nothing at all — not the brief, not the script, not the journal: return the
+brief text, its intended path, the resolved command, and the journal and `.err` paths, and the
+Orchestrator writes them and launches the run. Check your own pinned sandbox before drafting, and
+take the branch that matches it.
+
+The journal's first event is the `init` event, and its `session_id` is the run's recovery
+handle. The journal's `result` event carries the final answer. Return the journal path and
+that session id with the result, so the Orchestrator can confirm the bench ran. Read the
+`.err` file before calling a run empty; a launch that never reached the model leaves its
+trace only there. Resume an interrupted run through the CLI's `--resume` option, probed
+before its first use.
+
+Run that yourself only for a short bounded ask finishing in about two minutes. For anything
+longer your job ends at drafting: return the brief path, the exact resolved command, and the
+journal path, and let the Orchestrator launch it as a harness-tracked background command under
+a cap it owns. Never recommend a cap — you hold no record of prior runs. Never detach a run and
+end your turn; an unowned run has no completion signal and no death notice.

+`.agents/transports/cursor.md` owns the Cursor transport contract in full — the model pin, the
+CLI resolution ladder, the Windows versioned entry, the exact launch form, the journal and `.err`
+discipline, the session id, resumption, the containment bans, and the dark-bench ladder. **Read it
+and follow it.** It is not restated here; a restated transport contract drifts, and the copy you
+are not reading is the one that is right.
 
-That id was read from `agent models` on 2026-08-13. Resolve the model from the variable at
-dispatch. Re-read `agent models` and update this line when the id changes. Never guess or
-substitute a model id.
-
-## Invocation
-
-Resolve the CLI in this order, verifying with `--version` before first use:
-
-1. bare `agent`, on a POSIX host;
-2. on Windows, the versioned entry under `"$LOCALAPPDATA/cursor-agent/versions/"` — take the
-   newest directory and invoke its own `node.exe` against its `index.js` directly.
-
-Launch an unattended run through the versioned entry, never through `agent`, `agent.cmd`, or
-`agent.ps1` on Windows. Those shims delegate to `cursor-agent.ps1`, which sets the console window
-title and can abort with Win32 `0xE9` when no console is attached. The failure is intermittent, so a
-shim that answered once does not clear it, and when it does fire it leaves only a PowerShell
-`SetConsoleWindowTitle` trace — which reads as a bench that returned nothing rather than as a launch
-that never happened. The versioned entry has no console dependency and no such failure mode.
-
-Read an empty shim run as a launch failure until its `.err` journal is checked for that
-trace.
-
-If nothing responds the bench is dark. Stop with a deviation naming the fallback from the root
-tedious-work ladder — Luna, then Sonnet. Never hand the reading to the Orchestrator, `planner`, or
-`analyst`. Never install or authenticate.
-
-Create `tmp/cursor/` first. Write any brief longer than a couple of sentences to
-`tmp/cursor/<unit>-brief.md` and make the prompt a pointer to it; briefs never travel as
-fragile shell arguments. Every run journals its event stream, so the user can tail progress
-live and an interrupted run leaves its partial distillate on disk:
-
-`<resolved-entry> -p --trust --mode=ask --model "$CURSOR_GROK_MODEL" --output-format stream-json "<pointer>" > tmp/cursor/<unit>.jsonl 2> tmp/cursor/<unit>.err`
-
-Write that chain to `tmp/cursor/run.sh` and run the file, so the resolution, the model, and the
-journalling are one artifact the next run reuses.
-
-The journal's first event is the `init` event, and its `session_id` is the run's recovery
-handle. The journal's `result` event carries the final answer. Return the journal path and
-that session id with the result, so the Orchestrator can confirm the bench ran. Read the
-`.err` file before calling a run empty; a launch that never reached the model leaves its
-trace only there. Resume an interrupted run through the CLI's `--resume` option, probed
-before its first use.
-
-Run that yourself only for a short bounded ask finishing in about two minutes. For anything
-longer your job ends at drafting: return the brief path, the exact resolved command, and the
-journal path, and let the Orchestrator launch it as a harness-tracked background command under
-a cap it owns. Never recommend a cap — you hold no record of prior runs. Never detach a run and
-end your turn; an unowned run has no completion signal and no death notice.
+This role pins what that file leaves to the dispatch: **the route is `grok`, its mode is
+`--mode=ask`, and it is read-only in the current checkout.** A unit that needs a write is a
+misrouted unit — stop and report, do not switch routes.
 
 ## Brief and containment
 
 - The brief says read-only, names the evidence sought, requires `file:line` pointers, and
   forbids raw file dumps, decisions, design, and edits.
-- Never use `--force`.
-- Never expose `CURSOR_API_KEY`, inspect unrelated environment values, or read credentials.
 - Capture `git status --porcelain` before and after. Any change is a deviation.
-- Leave `tmp/cursor/` to the Orchestrator. `.agents/orchestration.md` § Bench laws owns the
-  retention rule for every journal.
