Cursor

Jue status: Read, Write, Artifact (project and Plugin), and Confirm are all Implemented (packages/ai-jue-adapter-cursor/). Cursor has no headless Plugin validator; confirm() returns unconfirmed for both project and plugin, with structural evidence for plugin (honest downgrade, not a gap). adapter-creator records the project/plugin dual layout against packages/ai-jue-adapter-cursor/src/capabilities/layout.ts.

Official references: Cursor Rules, Agent Skills, Subagents, Hooks, MCP, Plugins

1. Official surface

1.1 Project (workspace tree)

Root AGENTS.md, .cursor/rules/*.mdc, .cursor/commands/*.md, .cursor/skills/<name>/SKILL.md, .cursor/agents/<name>.md, .cursor/hooks.json, .cursor/mcp.json, plus .cursor/settings.json, .cursorignore, and .cursorindexingignore.

1.2 Plugin (distributable bundle)

.cursor-plugin/plugin.json manifest plus root-level rules/, skills/, agents/, commands/, hooks/hooks.json, and mcp.json. Local test path: ~/.cursor/plugins/local/<name> then Reload Window.

2. Intended Jue mapping

Canonical / adapter duty	Project	Plugin
manifest	—	.cursor-plugin/plugin.json
context.global	root AGENTS.md (managed block)	not mapped
rules	.cursor/rules/*.mdc	rules/*.mdc
commands	.cursor/commands/*.md	commands/*.md
skills	.cursor/skills/*/SKILL.md	skills/*/SKILL.md
agents	.cursor/agents/*.md	agents/*.md
hooks	.cursor/hooks.json	hooks/hooks.json
mcp.servers	.cursor/mcp.json	mcp.json
target-specific settings	tools.cursor	not mapped
variables	—	plugin.json#variables (passthrough)
Confirm	unconfirmed	unconfirmed (structural evidence)

3. Conversion boundaries

• Skills, agents, and commands keep YAML frontmatter (name, description).
• Project hooks write { version: 1, hooks }; plugin hooks write { hooks } (no version).
• Hook events: Canonical PascalCase → Cursor camelCase.
• Command-based MCP servers get type: "stdio".
• Empty hooks or MCP sets must not write files.

4. Current gaps

Level	Status	Gap
Read	Implemented	auto-detect project vs plugin
Write	Implemented	--artifact plugin works
Artifact	Implemented	project and Plugin both implemented
Confirm	Implemented	no native CLI; returns unconfirmed

fixtures/failures/ records the redacted security contract: literal MCP env rejection, hook path-escape rejection, and unknown hook-event pass-through. OpenClaw compatible-bundle reuses this Adapter's plugin layout when tools.openclaw.bundleFormat is the explicit value cursor.

5. Follow-up work (GitHub Issues)

JUE-304 delivered project/plugin round-trip. The items below are out of MVP scope and tracked separately — agents must read the full issue before implementing:
