Is there a way I can use the same rules from .github/copilot-instructions.md with cursor rules?
My company already uses copilot and the copilot-instructions.md and I would like to also being able to use them as context for my cursor IDE.
Any ideas?
Hey, you can add this file to the context of the Cursor chat, and it will work.
But what I would like to do is to be able to use it as Project Rules. That way I can always use it as the other devs.
Unfortunately, that won’t work, but you can have both Cursor rules and GitHub Copilot rules in your project, they don’t interfere with each other.
In this case what I want to achieve is to have one set of rules for Cursor and Copilot.
From what I read from the documentation I could add to a cursor project rule a reference to the .github/copilot-instructions.md using @files making in some way Cursor aware of the copilot rules.
