# Cursor Rules Scaffold
A template repository for managing Cursor rules across different levels of scope: global, project, and personal. This scaffold provides a structured approach to organizing and maintaining Cursor rules for consistent development practices.
> This project is based on the structure from [tacticlaunch/cursor-bank](https://github.com/tacticlaunch/cursor-bank), adapted to focus specifically on Cursor rules management.
## Purpose
This scaffold is designed to help teams and individuals:
- Maintain consistent coding standards and practices
- Share project-specific rules across team members
- Allow personal rule customization without affecting others
- Document and version control rule changes
- Provide a template for new projects
## Structure
```
.
├── .cursor/
│ └── rules/
│ ├── personal/ # Personal rules (git-ignored)
│ ├── global/ # Project-level global rules
│ └── core.mdc # Core project rules
└── project-plan.md # Project documentation
```
## Rule Levels
1. **Global Rules** (System-wide)
- Located in system-wide Cursor configuration
- Apply to all projects
- Managed by system administrators
2. **Project Rules** (`.cursor/rules/`)
- Stored in the project repository
- Shared across all team members
- Version controlled
- Includes both global and core project rules
3. **Personal Rules** (`.cursor/rules/personal/`)
- Stored locally
- Not shared or version controlled
- Allows individual customization
- Directory structure is preserved in git
## Getting Started
1. Clone this repository as a template for your project
2. Review the rules in `.cursor/rules/`
3. Create your personal rules in `.cursor/rules/personal/`
4. Customize project rules as needed
## Notes
- Personal rules (`.mdc` files) are git-ignored but the directory structure is preserved
- Project rules are version controlled and shared with the team
