The Problem
Cursor background agents work from training data and confidently write code using deprecated APIs, wrong package versions, and invented function signatures. Without web access, the agent cannot verify facts before coding.
How Scavio Helps
- Agent verifies package versions before installing
- Checks current API documentation before writing integration code
- Looks up error messages for solutions before suggesting fixes
- Free tier covers 8-25 coding sessions per month
- Background agent + web search = reliable unattended coding

Quick Start: Python Example
Here is a quick example searching Google for "A developer configures Cursor MCP with Scavio search. The background agent is asked to integrate Stripe's new Payment Links API. Instead of guessing the API shape from training data, it searches 'Stripe Payment Links API documentation 2026', finds the current endpoint and parameters, and writes correct integration code. 5 verification searches per task at $0.025.":
import requests
API_KEY = "your_scavio_api_key"
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={
"x-api-key": API_KEY,
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
json={"query": query},
)
data = response.json()
for result in data.get("organic_results", [])[:5]:
print(f"{result['position']}. {result['title']}")
print(f" {result['link']}\n")Built for Cursor IDE users, developers using background agents, teams delegating coding tasks to AI agents
Scavio handles the search infrastructure — proxies, CAPTCHAs, rate limits, and anti-bot detection — so you can focus on building your ground cursor agent with live web search solution. The API returns structured JSON that is ready for processing, analysis, or feeding into AI agents.
