MANVENDRA-githubCursor rulemcp-authoring
MANVENDRA-github/agentry/.cursor/rules/mcp-authoring.mdc
Build a well-behaved Model Context Protocol server — tool and resource design, input schemas, structured errors, transport choice (stdio vs remote), and secret handling. Invoke when writing or extending an MCP server other tools will call. Skip for consuming an existing server.
Prorise-coolCursor ruleclaude-code-plugins / rules
Prorise-cool/claude-code-plugins/.cursor/rules/claude-code-plugins.mdc
Use when working with Claude Code plugins, skills, agents, hooks, commands, or MCP servers. Plugins extend Claude Code with reusable components that may be installed in user/global locations outside the project.
AWSCursor ruleautomated-security-helper / rules
awslabs/automated-security-helper/ash-agent-plugins/agentic-coding/plugins/cursor/.cursor/rules/ash-mcp.mdc
Run security scans with the ASH (Automated Security Helper) MCP server. Use this skill whenever the user asks to scan for vulnerabilities, run a security check, find CVEs, audit dependencies, check for secrets, run SAST or SCA, scan IaC (Terraform/CloudFormation/Kubernetes), check for hardcoded credentials, or mentions ASH, Bandit, Semgrep, Checkov, Grype, Syft, or detect-secrets. Also trigger when the user wants to find security issues, harden a codebase, or asks "is my code secure". Do NOT trigger for code review without security context, performance audits, or test writing.
katalon-labsCursor ruletrue-skills / rules
katalon-labs/true-skills/.cursor/rules/platform-setup.mdc
Set up, verify, and troubleshoot Katalon True Platform/TestOps MCP connectivity for any AI coding agent. Use when you need to install or configure the Katalon MCP server, connect to a Katalon platform account, verify available Katalon MCP tools, diagnose missing authentication or repository access, confirm project/repository discovery, or explain what platform operations are and are not exposed through the MCP. One-time cross-cutting setup, run once by whoever wires the agent to the platform, before any lifecycle skill can work.
lalal-zzzCursor rulemcp-skill-publisher / rules
lalal-zzz/mcp-skill-publisher/.cursor/rules/mcp-skill-deployer.mdc
mcp-skill-deployer: when the user explicitly asks to audit, score, optimize, inspect, package, or publish an MCP server or Agent Skill project, run compliance checks, quality scoring, guided optimization, and export file generation. Never execute npm publish, git push, or registry commands without per-step user confirmation.
edhoferdianCursor ruleEEF / rules
edhoferdian/EEF/.cursor/rules/config-hygiene-edho-ferdian.mdc
Periodic garbage collection for Edho's own Claude Code environment (`~/.claude`): find redundant, stale, orphaned, or context-expensive items across skills, memory, hooks, permissions, MCP servers, automations and caches, then walk them one by one with a human confirmation and an undo path. Includes the ECC decommissioning track — the concrete checklist for removing the ECC install once its native replacement exists. Use when the user says \"bersihin config\", \"~/.claude berantakan\", \"kebanyakan skill\", \"sesi lambat mulai\", \"audit setup gue\", \"context cepat penuh\", or when a periodic (~30 day) review is due.
mchittineniCursor rulecloud-platform-skills / skills
mchittineni/cloud-platform-skills/.cursor/rules/skills/ai-agent-security-llm-threats.mdc
Security for LLM and agent systems: direct and indirect prompt injection, the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, MITRE ATLAS technique mapping, excessive agency and tool-scope containment, egress allowlisting to stop data exfiltration, human confirmation for irreversible actions, and treating third-party skills and MCP servers as untrusted code. Use when an agent is given tools or credentials, when retrieved documents or repository files could carry injected instructions, or when reviewing an AI feature before it reaches production.
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.
