A curated awesome list of Cursor .mdc rule files, paired with a Python generator that creates MDC rule files from a JSON library catalog. It uses Exa semantic search to gather best practices and an LLM (Gemini, OpenAI, or Anthropic) to generate structured rule content.

Use cases

• find cursor rules for my favorite libraries
• generate .mdc rule files for cursor editor
• create AI coding assistant rules from a library list
• bulk generate cursor mdc rules with LLM
• resume interrupted rule generation runs
• add custom libraries to cursor rules generator

When to choose

• you use the Cursor editor and want curated rule files for libraries
• you want to automate generating structured AI coding rules at scale
• you need a resumable, parallel pipeline with rate limiting for LLM generation

When to avoid

• you don't use Cursor or MDC-format rule files
• you need officially endorsed Cursor rules rather than community-generated content
• you don't have API keys for Exa and an LLM provider
