You can distinguish each data flow and avoid overclaiming controls

Show why this lesson detail matters: "Start with this check: Indexing, model requests, Cloud Agents and Grok Bot are described as four separate paths."

Step 1 of 3

The case: you can distinguish four data flows, explain Grok BotAn early AI teammate product from SpaceXAI and Cursor that works across apps on a persistent cloud computer and asks for approval on selected actions; launch materials describe it as beta, but Cursor says Beta Services terms do not apply. Press Enter for the full definition.'s required cloud storage and avoid importing Cloud Agent or zero-retention claims into it. Start with this check: Indexing, model requests, Cloud AgentsAgents that run in a Cursor-managed virtual machine, check out the repo, do the work and open a pull request, then shut down, with no load on your laptop. Press Enter for the full definition. and Grok Bot are described as four separate paths. Walk it once against a real situation so you can defend the call, not just assert it.

Privacy and governance — answer 'what leaves the machine and where is it stored' by data path
Admin control plane
SaySecurity asks whether Privacy ModeCursor's setting that guarantees code data is not used for training by Cursor or its model providers, and that an admin can enforce org-wide; data-retention terms are a separate, contractual layer. Press Enter for the full definition. means nothing is stored, and whether the Cloud Agent contract automatically covers Grok BotAn early AI teammate product from SpaceXAI and Cursor that works across apps on a persistent cloud computer and asks for approval on selected actions; launch materials describe it as beta, but Cursor says Beta Services terms do not apply. Press Enter for the full definition.. I split the answer by product path before making any promise.
DoStart with indexing and model requests. Read each path's current storage and provider terms, and state Privacy ModeCursor's setting that guarantees code data is not used for training by Cursor or its model providers, and that an admin can enforce org-wide; data-retention terms are a separate, contractual layer. Press Enter for the full definition. only as the no-training control it is.
SeeThe answer no longer turns a training setting into a universal no-storage promise.
DoCover Cloud AgentsAgents that run in a Cursor-managed virtual machine, check out the repo, do the work and open a pull request, then shut down, with no load on your laptop. Press Enter for the full definition. as their own execution and storage path, using only the current Cloud Agent documentation and contract.
SeeCloud Agent storage is visible, but none of its retention wording has been copied to another product.
DoAdd Grok BotAn early AI teammate product from SpaceXAI and Cursor that works across apps on a persistent cloud computer and asks for approval on selected actions; launch materials describe it as beta, but Cursor says Beta Services terms do not apply. Press Enter for the full definition. as a fourth path. It uses a persistent user-scoped cloud computer, requires cloud data storage and is unavailable under Privacy Mode (Legacy)A Cursor data setting that blocks Grok Bot because the product requires cloud data storage. Press Enter for the full definition..
SeeThe answer does not claim Grok BotAn early AI teammate product from SpaceXAI and Cursor that works across apps on a persistent cloud computer and asks for approval on selected actions; launch materials describe it as beta, but Cursor says Beta Services terms do not apply. Press Enter for the full definition. inherits Cloud Agent retention or model-request zero retention. Its own docs and contract must support those claims.
SayI close by mapping access, retention and deletion controls to the path they actually govern, then read back the current team setting and contract scope.
SeeFour paths are separate, Grok BotAn early AI teammate product from SpaceXAI and Cursor that works across apps on a persistent cloud computer and asks for approval on selected actions; launch materials describe it as beta, but Cursor says Beta Services terms do not apply.

QYou've applied it. What actually proves the work is done, not just a plausible answer?
