Does this stop you from using Cursor
Sometimes - I can sometimes use Cursor
@cursor.pro can you do retry after no response 5 minutes?
Hey, thanks for reporting this. To help narrow down the cause, could you share the name of the specific rule you see in the IDE that isn’t on your team dashboard? A screenshot of the rule in Cursor Settings > Rules would be really helpful too.
One common scenario is that Marketplace plugins can bundle their own rules, which show up in your settings as non-removable but wouldn’t appear on your team dashboard (since they’re not managed there). If that’s the case, the current workaround is the global “Include third-party Plugins, Skills, and other configs” toggle in Cursor Settings > Rules, though it’s all-or-nothing.
Let me know the rule name and I can dig further.
Is this your need? But ‘Team Dashboards’ has only three rules. I do not know how the so many rules appear.
hello, please receive the attachment.
Thanks for the screenshot – this confirms what I suspected. The extra rules you’re seeing (workers, tailwind, no-lodash, react, typescript, design, async_migrations, etc.) are all coming from the “label-x-migration” plugin, not from your team dashboard.
You can see this in the tabs at the top of the Rules panel – “dark-stars” is your team (which has your 3 team rules), and “label-x-migration” is a separate plugin providing its own rules. When you’re on the “All” tab, everything is shown together.
The “Cannot delete team rules” message is misleading here – these are plugin-sourced rules, not team-managed rules, but Cursor currently treats them the same way in the UI (non-deletable, no individual disable toggle).
Your options right now:
-
Toggle off “Include third-party Plugins, Skills, and other configs” at the top of Cursor Settings > Rules – this will hide all plugin-provided rules, skills, and configs. The downside is it’s all-or-nothing (affects all plugins, not just this one).
-
Click the “dark-stars” tab to see only your actual team rules and filter out the plugin rules from view.
Granular per-rule control for plugin-sourced rules is a known gap we’re tracking. A related thread with the same request: Plugins create team rules that can’t be disabled.
