In-depth technical investigation into the Manus AI agent, focusing on its architecture, tool orchestration, and autonomous capabilities.

I wrote an in-depth research prompt to conduct a GPT-Deep-Research on the Manus topic, seeking to replicate it with currently available open source tools. This is the result:

TLDR: Manus AI Agent Report

Manus is an autonomous AI agent built as a wrapper around foundation models (primarily Claude 3.5/3.7 and Alibaba's Qwen). It operates in a cloud-based virtual computing environment with full access to tools like web browsers, shell commands, and code execution. The system's key innovation is using executable Python code as its action mechanism ("CodeAct" approach), allowing it to perform complex operations autonomously. The architecture consists of an iterative agent loop (analyze → plan → execute → observe), with specialized modules for planning, knowledge retrieval, and memory management. Manus uses file-based memory to track progress and store information across operations. The system can be replicated using open-source components including CodeActAgent (a fine-tuned Mistral model), Docker for sandbox

How to use python with the Cursor IDE

How to use python with the Cursor AI IDE

We are going to edit cursors settings to point to the microsoft extensions marketplace.

  1. Remove all extensions and exit Cursor.
  2. Locate your Cursor project.json file depending on your platform and open it.
    • On MacOS: /Applications/Cursor.app/Contents/Resources/app/product.json
    • On Windows: C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Local\Programs\cursor\resources\app\product.json
    • On Linux: /usr/lib/code/product.json
  3. Locate the object value for key extensionsGallery in the json document.
