Cursor Creates and Manages Project Documentation to Improve Development Efficiency

“修复错误”提示

AI models like Sonnet 3.5 can sometimes miss important details, which can trigger a series of error loops.

Use the following tips to resolve this issue.

This will help the AI analyze the root cause of the error and then create a step-by-step plan to fix it.

“新功能”提示

Once you have successfully executed a component, you need to refer to the documentation to let the AI know the scope of work for the next component.

Use the following instructions to have the AI write an implementation plan before execution.

Flag relevant documents and once the AI has read the document, it may ask you questions.

Answer the question and let the AI perform.

This step will resolve half of the illusions in each component.

response structure

This structure informs the AI that the task I am working on is complete and I now need to move on to the next task.

1. 提供更新：


“Header 菜单现在已完美地居中对齐。”

2. 提供下一个任务：


“现在我们需要登录和注册按钮。”

3. 标记正确文档：


“查看 @ (文档名称) 并解释您将如何实现这一点。”

progress .md file

Use this tip to keep track of all your work. This will provide the AI with a context for progress and address duplicate errors.

“在每个完成的步骤结束时，将您的工作记录在 @progress in the .md file. What features did we implement? What errors did we encounter? How did we fix those bugs?

按步骤回答这三个问题，并且不要遗漏任何信息。”

project-status .md file

AI should pick up where we left off. This document will help AI keep a log of its work and know what has been done and what is left.

“在会话结束时，将您的工作记录在 @ project-status .md 文件中。

Start by examining the @ progress .md file for all the features we have implemented in this session.

然后撰写详细的会话报告，为下一个工作会话提供详细的上下文。”

Cursor Agent Hack

Cursor agent may be over-processed, thereby disrupting the code base.

“阅读 @ (文档名称) 中的说明，了解此功能的工作范围。

Create a step-by-step realization plan using chain-thinking reasoning.

Make sure to explain how each part of this feature works and provide macro-level detail.

将这些项目分解为详细的编号步骤。”

This will provide you with AI's upcoming plans. You can verify that everything is consistent with the request and approve it.

This will fix all the unnecessary editing issues with the Cursor Agent.

Additional Documents

Create a Documents or Notes folder.

Then attach all core documents to that folder.

• Project Requirements Document (PRD)
• Application Process Documentation
• Front End Guidelines Documentation
• Backend Architecture Documentation
• Technology Stack Documentation
• Documentation of document structure

You can use the 01 model, but you need the correct prompts (otherwise you may add unnecessary sections and redundant information).

The best solution is to use the CodeGuidedev Complete these documents.The tool has automated this process for you. This will help you complete all the necessary documentation in 20-30 minutes.

A mix of Sonnet 3.5, o1-preview and GPT4o for document creation.

Typically used ChatGPT Preparing all documents requires 7-8 hours of work (reading, optimizing, and iterating on each document).
