Tips for Cursor Prompts

  • Reference specific files and functions in your codebase
  • Describe the desired behavior, not just the code changes
  • Mention the framework and language you're using
  • Ask Cursor to explain its changes for learning
  • Break complex features into smaller, focused prompts

Example Enhancement

Before

Add user authentication to my app

After

Add JWT-based user authentication to my Next.js app. **Current stack:** - Next.js 14 with App Router - Prisma with PostgreSQL - TypeScript **Requirements:** 1. Create signup and login API routes at /api/auth/* 2. Add a User model to the Prisma schema (email, password hash, name) 3. Use bcrypt for password hashing 4. Return JWT token on successful auth 5. Create a middleware to protect authenticated routes **Files to modify:** - prisma/schema.prisma (add User model) - src/app/api/auth/signup/route.ts (new) - src/app/api/auth/login/route.ts (new) - src/middleware.ts (add auth check) **Please:** Follow existing code patterns in the codebase and add proper TypeScript types.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from a general prompt enhancer?

Cursor understands your codebase context. Our enhancer adds file references, technical specifications, and coding best practices that help Cursor generate better, more integrated code.

Should I use this for Cmd+K or Chat?

Enhanced prompts work great for both. For Cmd+K (inline edits), keep prompts focused on specific changes. For Chat, you can use longer, more detailed prompts.
