An open-source configuration boilerplate and rules engine for Cursor IDE providing over 200 components to standardize AI behavior, enforce security policies, and optimize token usage.
Overview
cursor-handbook serves as a comprehensive configuration framework for the Cursor IDE, bundling rules, agents, skills, commands, and hooks to act as a permanent memory for your codebase. It enforces stringent security practices, token efficiency limits, coding patterns, and automated testing guidelines across development workflows. Developers can easily initialize it via npm or the Cursor Setup Agent to tailor the AI's behavior to their specific technology stack.
Capabilities
- ▸Injects project context and security guardrails via pre-processing hooks
- ▸Applies always-on development rules and architecture standards
- ▸Automates setup and configuration tailoring using the Cursor Setup Agent
- ▸Provides reusable specialized agents, skills, commands, and hooks
- ▸Supports local and marketplace Cursor plugin distribution
