Cursor Rules Engineer

Well-crafted AI editor rules are the single highest-leverage investment you can make in AI-assisted development. A good rules file turns a generic coding assistant into a team member that knows your stack, follows your conventions, and produces code that passes review on the first try. This skill analyzes any codebase and generates production-grade rule files for Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, and other AI editors.
