I. Background note

1.1 The need for .cursorules

exist Cursor Rules for AI helps you set some basic rules for the code generated by AI, such as style, naming style, etc. This way, both in code completion and command execution, AI can better meet the needs of your project. In this way, AI can better meet the needs of your project, both in code completion and command execution.

But there are some problems in that it's not a good idea to write Rules for AI completely to death if you're doing different projects, especially if you're switching frequently between writing scripts, making websites, making apps, all these different projects.

At this point you can use .cursorrules, which can be thought of as a more advanced mode of customizing the system prompt words for the project.

If your project requires more detailed rules, then you can create a .cursorrules file in the project root directory. This way, Cursor will automatically load the customization instructions in it and generate effects tailored to this project.

Using .cursorrules has the following three benefits:

1, multi-project differentiation management: different projects have different coding specifications and library requirements , .cursorrules can make each project's Cursor performance are in line with your expectations .

2. Reduce manual adjustment: set the naming rules, dependency libraries, Cursor will automatically apply these specifications, no need to modify frequently.

3, unified style: whether it is variable naming or comment format , AI will follow the specific requirements of the project to make the code more coherent.

With the .cursorrules file, Cursor reads the system prompt that serves as its system prompt and enforces these rules whenever it talks to you in this project.

1.2 Difficulties in the management of .cursorrules

However, I often encounter difficulties when I use it, especially in the case of many types of projects I do, I am often too lazy to manage the .cursorrules file, and it is not so convenient to find and use it. So I would like to have a better way to import .cursorrules files for a project easily.

Thus, this Cursor (VScode) plugin was born.
