Day-1 Cursor
Stay in control of the AI from your first hour.
Four beginner rules and a 5-point review before you click Keep, so week one doesn’t vanish into agent loops.
The review card, free in the teaser
- Scope Only the files I expected changed?
- Read I scrolled every changed line.
- Explain I can say what it does in one sentence.
- Run Before Keep, I saw it actually work.
- Undo Small enough to reverse easily.
Any “no”? Reject, or ask. Never “Keep and hope.”
In the full pack
- START_HERE: a 30-minute walkthrough ending in one small change you reviewed
- Gated review checklist and copy-paste prompts
- Four ready-to-use Cursor rules: small diffs, explain as you go, no fake done, ask before refactor
