Describe the Bug
I have a repo that has this structure:
backend
frontend
.env
docker-compose.yml
frontend and backend have also README files explaining how to run them (uv for backend, npm for frontend).
When I ask Cursor to run the stack it keeps forgetting to cd into the folder before running the commands, or it uses the wrong commands , eg python instead of uv.
I have even tried to use .cursorrules with more specific instructions but it does not get much better.
Steps to Reproduce
Prompt examples: “run the stack” or “test and debug the stack for me”
Expected Behavior
Remembers to cd and run the exact commands. Monitors the stdout and stderr of frontend and backend, and helps me debug both at the same time
Operating System
MacOS
