Ever wish you could effortlessly track your prompts and maintain a clear overview of your Cursor Composer projects? These simple tricks will revolutionize how you work!
📝 Never Lose a Prompt Again: Auto-Saving with Cursor Rules
Tired of manually copying and pasting your prompts? Let Cursor Composer do the heavy lifting!
Here’s the magic:
- Create a “cursor_rules.txt” file in your project directory.
- Paste this code snippet:
each time user asks your query write every user prompt that you receive to instructions.txt each one separated by a new line and triple dashes between each prompt
you have to do this each time you got a certain type of prompt
create the file if it doesn't exist through this alone with other files
- That’s it! Every prompt you enter will be automatically saved to “instructions.txt”. 🤯
Real-life example: Imagine building a website. With this rule, every design element, feature request, and code snippet you ask Cursor Composer for is automatically documented.
Pro Tip: Use this file to review your progress, identify recurring patterns in your workflow, and even share your creative process with others!
🎯 Stay on Target: Generate Dynamic Project Summaries
Keeping track of a complex project can feel like herding cats. 🐈 This trick helps you maintain laser focus!
How it works:
- Add this code snippet to your “cursor_rules.txt” file:
each time user asks your query write a bullet point summary of the project that you're building to summary.txt
you have to do this each time we got a certain type of prompt
create the file if it doesn't exist through this alone with other files
- Witness the power! Cursor Composer will now maintain a “summary.txt” file, constantly updating it with a concise overview of your project.
Example: Developing a game? This rule ensures you have a dynamically generated document outlining the storyline, characters, game mechanics, and more. 🕹️
Pro Tip: Refer to this summary regularly to stay aligned with your goals, quickly onboard new team members, or simply marvel at how much you’ve accomplished!
