Critical Thinking Cursor Rules for Enhanced Code Quality

1. ASSUMPTION VERIFICATION PROTOCOL

Before Writing ANY Code:

  • STOP and LIST all assumptions being made about:
    • Input data types, formats, and ranges
    • System environment and dependencies
    • User intentions and use cases
  • Edge cases and error conditions

Base Cursor Rules
# Base Rules for Cursor
## Fundamental Principles
- Write clean, simple, readable code
- Implement features in the simplest possible way
- Keep files small and focused (<200 lines)
- Test after every meaningful change
- Focus on core functionality before optimization
- Use clear, consistent naming
- Think thoroughly before coding. Write 2-3 reasoning paragraphs.
