I really like the cursor/rules with multiple files in mdc format. The documentation says that the base .cursorrules file will be deprecated or removed in the future though,
The issue is there is NO way to mark a specific file or files under the folder to be active all the time when chatting with the agent. I have tried combinations of using notepads and attaching, and directly attaching individual files but it doesnt work as well for some reason, and is kinda a pain for the stuff I want to be active in every agent conversation thread.
Simplest use case is when using agent, I have defined an operating proceedutres and also given the LLM some personality behaviors I prefer for all interactions. With .cursorrules, it seems to always work and follow the working model I have defined.
SUGGESTION: allow in the mdc file format a setting to basically say treat it as 1 of the ‘BASE’ rules - any with this setting apply to all.
I know I could also use the IDE cursor settings rules for AI, but that is not committable to source control.
