cursor-security-rules
Basic Information
This repository provides a curated set of security rules designed to be integrated into Cursor, an AI-assisted development environment. The rules act as guardrails to reduce the risk of unsafe code generation by the Cursor agent, helping teams avoid exposing secrets, executing dangerous system commands, or adopting insecure coding patterns. Users can add the rules to a .cursor/rules directory or the project root to apply them instantly. The collection focuses on enforcing secure development principles, safe Multi-Component Program (MCP) usage, Python security practices, preventing secret leakage in front-end code, and blocking unsafe system operations. The authors are security researchers and the repo is intended for developers and security teams who use Cursor and want automated, shareable constraints that steer AI-assisted code generation toward safer outcomes.
