Describe the Bug
Had a specific insight regarding a layout problem solved with a specific framework and invoked /Generate Cursor Rules slash command on it. Cursor proceeded to create a .cursorrules file instead of an .mdc file in .cursor/rules as it normally does. Is this expected behavior?
Steps to Reproduce
Ask Claude-4-sonnet MAX to /Generate Cursor Rules on something specific
Expected Behavior
Expected generation of rules to be an .mdc file in .cursor/rules.

Does this stop you from using Cursor
No - Cursor works, but with this issue
