Get a Cursor agent status brief when a Drive file is created

Use a new status request or handoff file to check which Cursor cloud agents exist and what status Cursor returns for them.

Trigger

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

Action

List Agents

Tool to retrieve a paginated list of all Cursor Cloud agents. Use when you need to view existing agents, their status, or iterate through agents with pagination.

Why this helps

Checking agent activity can interrupt focused work, especially when status requests arrive alongside project documents.

  • Use a new Drive file as the signal to check agent status.
  • See the available agents in one report without opening Cursor.
  • Keep the check tied to a project handoff or status request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Cursor once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to list Cursor cloud agents and summarize the returned agents and statuses for the new file's request.
  • 4Pick File Created as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a real Drive file that clearly requests an agent status check.

Questions about this workflow

Does this start or change a Cursor agent?

No. The available Cursor action lists agents and their returned status; it does not start or modify an agent.

Can Notis match agents to a project automatically?

Only if the request provides enough identifying context and the returned data supports a match. Do not assume Cursor provides a project mapping.

ActionInstant

File Shared (Permissions Added)

Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.

TriggerPolling

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
