Cursor kits and writing
Taste for Cursor.
A short list of rules, skills, and prompts that make the agent ship work you would keep — plus a blog on how to write those files.

# UI craft
You are shipping an interface a designer would keep. Prefer fewer, better decisions over more decoration.
## Hierarchy
- One focal action per view. Secondary actions stay quieter.
- Type scale: display for the page idea, body for reading, caption for metadata. Do not invent a fifth size.
- Space in a rhythm of 8px. If two elements feel unrelated, they need more space, not a divider.
- Cards are for groups of related content, not for wrapping every sentence.How a kit lands in your repo
Unzip at the root so .cursor/rules and .cursor/skills merge with what you already have. Then open a new Agent chat.
- 01
Pick a kit
A rule, skill, prompt, or recipe. Title and first sentence should tell you if it belongs in this repo.
- 02
Copy or pack it
Copy the file, download it, or add several kits and unzip the pack at the project root.
- 03
Start a new chat
Rules and skills load on the next Agent thread. Ask for a polish pass and see if copy and spacing move first.
