SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This material enables teams to define and enforce Cursor rules that govern AI agent behavior, ensuring consistent guidance across sessions and projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

Rule authoring: Create .mdc rule definitions stored under .cursor/rules/ to specify scope, glob patterns, and applicability.
Governance: Apply rules to projects to enforce conventions around prompts, file patterns, and rule hierarchies.
Maintenance: Version and update rules as guidelines evolve, with a clear lifecycle for rule reviews.

Quick Start

Draft a new rule by adding a .mdc file under .cursor/rules/ with a concise description and applicable glob patterns, then test its behavior in a sample session.

FAQPage Schema

How do I create persistent Cursor rules for AI agents?▼

Create persistent Cursor rules by authoring .mdc files under the .cursor/rules/ directory, defining concise descriptions and applicable glob patterns to provide consistent guidance for AI agents across sessions and projects.

What is the best way to enforce AI governance conventions across projects?▼

Enforce AI governance conventions by applying rule hierarchies and file patterns within .cursor/rules/ .mdc files, ensuring consistent prompt behavior and project conventions across all AI agent sessions.

How do I structure a .mdc rule file with YAML frontmatter?▼

Structure a .mdc rule file by adding YAML frontmatter in the file header to define scope, glob patterns, and applicability, saving it under the .cursor/rules/ directory for Cursor to parse.

Does the create-rule approach support versioning for evolving AI guidelines?▼

Yes, the create-rule approach supports maintenance by allowing you to version and update .mdc rule files as guidelines evolve, providing a clear lifecycle for rule reviews and updates.

When do I need to use glob patterns in Cursor rule files?▼

Use glob patterns in Cursor rule files when you need to specify the exact file scope and applicability for a rule, ensuring the AI agent only applies the guidance to matching file paths within the project.
