<!-- CURSOR_CLI:START -->
# Cursor CLI Rules

**Tool**: Cursor IDE automation and scripting

## Quick Start

```bash
# Cursor reads .cursorrules automatically
# This file is generated by rulebook init
```

## Usage

Cursor automatically references:
- `.cursorrules` (generated by rulebook)
- `AGENTS.md` (via @AGENTS.md references)

## Workflow

1. Use `@AGENTS.md` in chat to reference standards
2. Request: "Follow @AGENTS.md. Implement [feature] with tests."
3. Cursor respects .cursorrules and AGENTS.md automatically
4. Review and accept changes

**Critical**: Generated `.cursorrules` points to AGENTS.md. Use @ mentions for explicit references.
