Cursor Best Practices
Best practices for working with Cursor to maximize productivity and code quality.
Core Principles
- Start with plans - Use Plan Mode (Shift+Tab) for complex tasks
- Manage context effectively - Let agent find context, start new conversations when needed
- Extend the agent - Use Rules for static context, Skills for dynamic capabilities
- Review carefully - AI-generated code needs review like human code
Key Workflows
- Test-driven development - Write tests first, iterate until passing
- Codebase understanding - Use agent to explore and learn codebases
- Git workflows - Automate common git operations with commands
- Parallel agents - Run multiple agents simultaneously for comparison
