Enable custom mode to select specific rules to apply

Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

Describe the request

It would be great to have a way for custom mode to have the ability to choose specific rules to apply - this will help with creating dedicated modes with specific rules and thus making the context of each mode much more accurate

Hey, thanks for the feature request, we’ll consider it. However, at the moment, you have the option to add your rules in a custom mode.

Thanks for quick response,
I’m aware of this option for adding rules like so - but this is one rule file which is limited, it does not allow us to reuse rules between modes, as well as to remove specific rules that might not be relevant to that mode and might take up unnecessary context space

Got it, thank you. We’ll consider adding this feature.

Is there any limitation for this custom instruction. Does this act as a normal rule?
