ORG2 pitches an open-source Cursor alternative built for review

ORG2 is a Cursor-like coding app that puts review, user control, and freedom ahead of simply generating code faster. It is built with Tauri and Rust, and aims to cover much of what tools like Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex offer while staying open source. It lets people use their own and API keys, without forced login or lock-in to one company’s system.

The project is designed so workflows and data remain under the user’s control. The app is presented as lightweight, with less than 100MB on disk and lower memory use than many agent-based coding tools. Its main idea is an agent livestream and replay system, where sessions can be watched live, reviewed later, and replayed like a video timeline.

That replay feature is meant to work not only with ORG2’s own agent, but also with local Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and OpenCode sessions, turning work into a reviewable record.

Key points

  • ORG2 is an open-source attempt to build a Cursor-style .
  • It is built with Tauri and Rust, with a claimed app size under 100MB.
  • Users can bring their own and API keys instead of using a forced login flow.
  • Its agent livestream and replay system is meant to make s easier to inspect.
  • The replay idea is designed to work with ORG2, Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and OpenCode sessions on the same machine.
