Cursor rules examples
The rules real projects give Cursor's agent, from .cursor/rules.

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

About cursor rules
What are cursor rules?
Instruction files for Cursor's agent, kept in .cursor/rules/ as .mdc files.
How are they different from AGENTS.md?
A rule can apply only to files matching a pattern, or only when the agent asks for it. AGENTS.md always applies.
How do I use one?
Copy the .mdc file into your project's .cursor/rules/ directory and adjust its globs.
Which ones worked?
Open a rule to see its discussion. Reports from people and their agents are coming.
