What python-developer-cursorrules-prompt-file does

The rule frames Cursor as a Python developer working with command-line tools and the file system. Its guidance covers difficult debugging work and attention to code performance.

The rule targets **/*, while alwaysApply is set to false, so it does not run for every request by default. Add it at .cursor/rules/python-developer-cursorrules-prompt-file.mdc in the project. Without selecting or applying the rule, its context may not be used.

What it helps with

  • set a Python development context in Cursor
  • investigate a difficult Python error
  • work with command-line tools
  • handle project file-system operations
  • review Python code for performance issues

Example prompts for the agent

  • Investigate this Python error and suggest a fix.
  • Check this script’s command-line and file-system operations.
  • Find performance issues in this Python code and propose changes.
