🔧 Technical Details

Change Context

Issue: Cursor IDE rules were not applying with the original configuration

Root Cause:

  • Empty description: field was unnecessary
  • Empty globs: [] field wasn't filtering anything
  • Rules needed to be "Apply Manually" (manual chat reference)

Solution:

- content += 'description: \n';
- content += 'globs: []\n';

Result: Rules now properly activate with @<agent-name> manual reference in Cursor chat

Risk Assessment

Risk Level: MINIMAL

  • No API changes
  • No breaking changes
  • Backward compatible
  • Cursor-specific (isolated impact)
  • No dependency changes
  • No configuration changes needed
