Cursor AppImage Updater

## Overview

GitHub Action to fetch the latest **Cursor** Linux AppImage and create a release.

## Why?

Cursor on Linux:
- ❌ Doesn’t auto-update
- ❌ Isn’t hosted at a fixed URL
- ✅ Has an API with the latest version info

This makes it hard for Linux users to keep Cursor up to date & this action solves that by:
- Querying Cursor’s API for the latest version
- Checking if that version already exists as a GitHub release
- If not, downloading the AppImage and publishing a release

Linux users can then update via GitHub releases, scripts, or package managers using a consistent URL.

## Setup Auto Updates with Gear Lever

To automate updates for your Cursor AppImage on Linux, use [Gear Lever](https://github.com/mijorus/gearlever). It supports update sources like GitHub releases and static URLs. Configure the update URL based on your system architecture:

- **x86_64**
```
https://github.com/udit-001/cursor-linux-release/releases/download/*/Cursor-*-x86_64.AppImage
```

- **ARM64**
```
https://github.com/udit-001/cursor-linux-release/releases/download/*/Cursor-*-aarch64.AppImage
```

These URLs will allow automatic fetching of the latest releases. For more detailed instructions, refer to the [update guide](https://mijorus.it/posts/gearlever/update-url-info/).
