Created a collection of 879 .mdc Cursor Rules files for you all

I’m sure most of you know about awesome-cursorrules

I used @ericzakariasson 's cursor-workshop template and created a script to convert .cursorrules files into .mdc files using LLMs according to instructions given in the docs.

Here’s the link: awesome-cursor-rules-mdc/awesome-cursor-rules-mdc at main · sanjeed5/awesome-cursor-rules-mdc · GitHub

The script and prompts are open source in the same repo.

I’ll also raise a PR in the original awesome-cursorrules repo because it’s all thanks to that. Such an awesome initiative :saluting_face:

I saw a lot of confusion around the .mdc files in the forum and felt like doing this.

Hope this helps the forum users!!

Could you please elaborate on the process you followed to check and review these items? I am curious about the steps involved.

this is only as good as .cursorrules files in the original repo and then how well LLM processed it. I’ve used a lot of rules from https://cursor.directory/ and have liked a lot of it. i modify it according to me needs after that.

you can see the detailed process in the readme file.

since it contains a lot of different types of projects, I can’t be sure if all of them are the absolute best rules for them.

but I think this should be a good start for most projects.

Many thanks for your reply. This is an amazing repository for the cursor. I believe that if the cursor had a feature similar to GitHub Copilot, it would be great. For instance, it could have rules for different tasks, such as rules for generating code, rules for reviewing code, test codes, and rules for generating commits. I’m not sure if this feature already exists with the current separation. Alternatively, is there any way to achieve this in the cursor?
