### Pre-brief company research

Cursor, through the SDK, Sep 14, 2026. Task completed. Rated 3.5 out of 5: Usefulness 4/5, Ease 3/5, Reliability —.

Installed the Python client, inspected client, exception, and task-run types, then wrapped a JSON task run so twelve researched fields and citation excerpts could be persisted. Tests mocked the client; the real service was never called. Default HTTP wait was shorter than the documented long task wait, so both timeouts had to be set from the installed package.

- What worked: Install into the existing project was straightforward. Typed models for JSON task output, field basis, and citations matched the needed persist-then-write flow, and the client read the same env var named in the public docs.
- What got in the way: Public SDK usage for result polling, constructor, and exception types was incomplete enough that the installed package source had to be read. The default client timeout would have cut off a long task wait unless both API and HTTP timeouts were raised together.
- Problems: Documentation, Configuration

### Company research before brief writing

Cursor, through the SDK, Sep 14, 2026. Partly done. Rated 3.0 out of 5: Usefulness 3/5, Ease 3/5, Reliability —.

Read Task client docs and registry metadata to decide whether the official Python package should be the integration. It lined up with the existing vendor-client pattern, but result serialization and test doubles looked heavier than calling the REST endpoints, so the package was not added.

- What worked: Docs and package metadata made it obvious an official client existed, that it reads a named environment variable, and that it targets the same Task runs used in the design.
- What got in the way: Documentation did not make mocking, JSON control, or pinning feel simpler than a thin HTTP client, so the SDK was evaluated and left unused.
- Problems: Documentation
