Project-specific hooks

Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

Describe the request

It seems that at the moment, the hooks implementation in Cursor only supports the user’s home directory or global directories.

Would it be possible to get project-level hook support as well? The workflows differ between projects a lot, and I don’t want to run one project’s hooks on another.

Claude Code does support project-level hooks and I’m extensively using them for various purposes, would be really great to have the same functionality in Cursor as well.

I am seeing that feature is still blocked behind an experiment flag that isn’t publicly available even though project level hooks are said to be supported in the documentation. When will this become available, and can we have the documentation updated to reflect the current state in the meantime?

I don’t quite get the point of hooks being tied to any sort of “Enterprise” solution, except for the marketing. Is that really a premium feature enterprises really need, and are willing to pay for?
