The article discusses integrated development environments based on artificial intelligence as an innovative programming tool that provides automation of routine software development tasks. The Cursor development environment, developed by Anywhere, is the main object of research. The architectural features of the system are analyzed, including an agent-based approach to interacting with code, context management mechanisms through generation supplemented with extracted data, and code base indexing using vector representations and Merkle trees to optimize updates. The key limitations of modern integrated development environments based on artificial intelligence have been identified: problems with the size of the context window, indexing performance of large repositories, accuracy of context extraction, as well as privacy and security issues. Special attention is paid to the human factor – the lack of competence of developers in the field of effective context management and the creation of high-quality products. The article substantiates the need to create a preliminary context management agent capable of technically optimizing processes and directing users to effective practices of working with integrated development environments based on artificial intelligence.

The procedure for filling positions of teaching staff of universities belonging to the teaching staff is regulated by federal laws and local regulations. At the same time, it becomes necessary to store and exchange a large number of documents between various participants of competitive events. The aim of the work was to automate the process of holding competitive events and use a common data warehouse, with the help of which it is possible to speed up paperwork, save time and consumables, ensure the safety of storing, transmitting and processing information. The article reflects the obtained results of automation of the competitive selection process at the St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering.
