shared-prompts

Masterpoint's open source collection of AI/LLM prompts, Cursor rules, and templates for more effective workflows.

How to Use

You can keep it basic and copy individual Cursor Rules into projects or use rule-tool to create symlinks in multiple projects.

Using rule-tool to symlink Cursor Rules in repos

rule-tool is a go CLI tool that generates symlinks between a centrally managed Cursor Rules repo and various projects. The advantage is that you're able to reference or pull in the same central set of Cursor Rules across multiple projects.

To start using rule-tool,

1. Install rule-tool following these instructions.

2. Git clone this shared-prompts repo

   mkdir -p $HOME/tooling
   cd $HOME/tooling
   git clone [email protected]:masterpointio/shared-prompts.git

3. Export an env var RULE_TOOL_PATH that points to the shared-prompts repo,

   export RULE_TOOL_PATH=$HOME/tooling/shared-prompts

   You can also easily add this to your respective shell config,

   # bashrc
   echo 'export RULE_TOOL_PATH=$HOME/tooling/shared-prompts' >> ~/.bashrc
   
   # zshrc
   echo 'export RULE_TOOL_PATH=$HOME/tooling/shared-prompts' >> ~/.zshrc

   Please note, rule-tool by convention expects to find a folder named rules within the RULE_TOOL_PATH folder.

4. Call rule-tool and symlink rules from shared-prompts in your current project

   # example project
   cd $HOME/git/some-project
   
   # Option 1
   rule-tool # this will open up a terminal based GUI
   
   # Option 2
   # See: https://github.com/circleci-petri/rule-tool?tab=readme-ov-file#non-interactive-mode
   rule-tool --non-interactive --list
