cursor-ide Stinger
The knowledge repository for cursor-ide-worker-bee. Covers Hivemind's real Cursor surface: the Cursor 1.7+ hooks harness, the first-party Cursor extension, registering the Hivemind MCP server in Cursor, and the .cursor/ colony (rules, agents, skills, commands, model matrix) that this repo ships.
This is the platform knowledge that keeps the colony working inside Cursor: the rules .mdc format, the hooks lifecycle, MCP registration, the agents/skills/commands layout, and the cursor harness install.
When this stinger applies
Load whenever cursor-ide-worker-bee is invoked. Typical triggers (any of these phrases):
"wire the Cursor hooks" / "what does install-cursor do" / "hooks.json" / "Cursor 1.7 hooks"
"add a .cursor/rules/*.mdc" / "fix this rule" / "rule frontmatter" / "alwaysApply / globs"
"register the Hivemind MCP server in Cursor" / "mcp.json in Cursor"
"the cursor extension" / "harnesses/cursor/extension" / "the dashboard webview / status bar"
"the colony layout" / "where do agents/skills/commands live" / "the-beekeeper / the-smoker"
"model-comparison-matrix"
Do NOT load for:
Code quality / typing of the TypeScript source itself (typescript-node-worker-bee).
The MCP protocol internals of src/mcp/server.ts: tool schemas, transport (mcp-protocol-worker-bee).
Harness wiring for Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, or other agents (harness-integration-worker-bee).
First action when loaded
Read in order before acting:
guides/01-principles.md: the Hivemind Cursor surface map, the rules .mdc mental model, and the hard directives (idempotent hook merge, em-dash ban, Cursor field shape).
The task-specific guide:
02 for .cursor/rules/*.mdc authoring.
03 for registering the Hivemind MCP server in Cursor.
04 for the Cursor hooks lifecycle (the 6 events + install-cursor.ts).
Stinger-level non-negotiables that cursor-ide-worker-bee enforces on every invocation:
Cursor's hooks.json schema differs from Claude/Codex. Array entries under each event are command objects directly ({ type, command, timeout }), with NO outer { hooks: [...] } wrapper and NO top-level matcher wrapper. See guides/04.
Hook merges must stay idempotent and Windows-safe.install-cursor.ts strips prior Hivemind entries (matched on a normalized /.cursor/hivemind/bundle/ path so backslash paths on Windows do not duplicate) before re-adding, and only rewrites hooks.json when content changed so it does not perturb Cursor's trust fingerprint.
.cursor/rules/*.mdc is the only rules format. This repo ships .mdc rules with frontmatter (description / globs / alwaysApply). Never introduce a .cursorrules file here.
Prefer alwaysApply: false with a narrow glob or a sharp description. Reserve alwaysApply: true for short, always-true directives (this repo uses it only for no-em-dashes.mdc).
NO em dashes, ever. Write hyphens directly. This is enforced by .cursor/rules/no-em-dashes.mdc and applies to every file this Bee authors.
Key facts by domain (quick reference)
The Hivemind Cursor surface (what this repo actually ships)
Surface
Path
Purpose
Hook installer
src/cli/install-cursor.ts
Merges ~/.cursor/hooks.json, copies the bundle to ~/.cursor/hivemind/bundle/
Hook bundle
harnesses/cursor/bundle/
Built hook scripts (session-start.js, capture.js, pre-tool-use.js, graph-on-stop.js, session-end.js)
Extension
harnesses/cursor/extension/
First-party VS Code/Cursor extension: status bar, onboarding, dashboard webview, codebase graph, skill sync
MCP server
src/mcp/server.ts
stdio server exposing hivemind_search / hivemind_read / hivemind_index
Six lifecycle events are wired: sessionStart, beforeSubmitPrompt, preToolUse (Shell matcher rewrites grep/rg against ~/.deeplake/memory/ into a SQL fast path), postToolUse, afterAgentResponse, stop, and sessionEnd. graph-on-stop.js auto-builds the code graph on stop and sessionEnd (gated, async, never blocks Cursor).
Rules (.cursor/rules/*.mdc)
Cursor project rules are .mdc files with frontmatter. Activation is driven by three fields:
Mode
alwaysApply
globs
description
Always Apply
true
any
any
Apply to Specific Files
false
set
any
Apply Intelligently
false
unset
set
Apply Manually
false
unset
unset
This repo's live rules: no-em-dashes.mdc (alwaysApply), plan-construction-protocol.mdc, respect-agent-work-boundaries.mdc.
MCP registration in Cursor
The Hivemind MCP server (src/mcp/server.ts, stdio) exposes hivemind_search, hivemind_read, hivemind_index. To use it inside Cursor, add a mcpServers entry to .cursor/mcp.json (project) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) pointing at the built server. See guides/03.
