Rescue by tool
Cursor rescue
Cursor codebases get big. Agent sessions do not share a style, tests lag the features, and a secret ends up in a log. We stabilise the project, then leave enough structure that the next session does not undo it.
What we keep seeing in Cursor projects
- Patterns that change every time the agent opens the repo
- Features landing with no test beside them
- Secrets committed or printed in logs
- Half-finished refactors still in the tree
- The same bug regenerated after each fix

Same path as Vibe Code Rescue: about 48 hours to look, a severity ranking, then a fixed scope if you want the work done. Knowing the tool mostly means less of that time goes to surprises.
FAQ
Can you fix a Cursor-built app without rewriting it?
Often, yes, for a large part of the product. We will not promise that before we have seen it. The diagnostic says what to keep. The quote covers security, auth, data, and payments first.
How much does Cursor rescue cost?
Same ladder as the rest of the rescue work: diagnostic free–$500, audit $299–$2,500, focused rescue $500–$12,500+. The numbers are on /pricing/.
