description	Analyze the codebase and generate context rules for Cursor. Use when setting up or populating .cursor/rules/ files.

Cursor Code Discovery - Automated Workflow

You are tasked with analyzing this codebase and completing Cursor rules files.

Inputs

1. Target directory (optional) - A particular directory within the codebase to focus on. If not provided, analyze the entire codebase.

Steps

1. Analyze the Codebase (or Directory) - Examine the codebase and gather information.
2. Populate Instruction Files - Use the existing files in .cursor/rules/.
3. Update Glob Patterns - If a target directory is provided, adjust the alwaysApply: true glob patterns accordingly.
4. Review Created Files - Confirm everything is accurate (make sure everything mentioned actually exists in the codebase).
5. Validate Formatting - Ensure proper formatting is followed based on the Guidelines below.

Key Analysis Areas

1. Overview: Business domain, key concepts, primary user types, integration points, key business workflows
2. Architecture & Patterns: Folder structure, module boundaries, layer dependencies, communication patterns, external service integrations
3. Stack Best Practices: Language-specific idioms, framework patterns, dependency injection patterns, error handling and validation patterns
4. Anti-Patterns: Logging of sensitive data, hardcoded secrets, non-parameterized SQL queries
5. Data Models: Core domain entities and relationships, key value objects and DTOs, data validation rules, database migration patterns
6. Security & Configuration: Environment variable management, secrets handling (1Password, vaults, etc.), authentication/authorization flow, API security patterns, compliance requirements
7. Commands & Scripts: Build scripts, deployment scripts, database migration commands, custom CLI tools

Guidelines

• Each file MUST be 40 lines or fewer (including frontmatter)
• Use bullet points and concise language
• Preserve critical technical details
• Include specific examples from THIS codebase
• Adjust glob patterns as needed if a target directory is provided
• Content should be specific to this repository, not generic advice
