Overview

Prompt Engineering (Grade A) is a skill for crafting effective prompts and instructions for AI coding assistants, particularly for use with Cursor or other LLM-based tools. It helps users create clear, structured prompts that guide AI behavior, ensuring accurate and relevant output. This skill is essential for developers, reviewers, and end-users who need to interact with AI systems. The tool provides guidelines and best practices for writing high-quality prompts, including defining personas, structuring prompts, and applying established techniques. It also offers checklists for evaluating prompt quality and completeness.

Key features

  • Persona definition and role specification
  • Prompt structuring with clear sections
  • Application of established prompt patterns
  • Prompt quality and completion checklists
  • Guidelines for imperative mood and critical constraints

What's Inside?

| Layer | Count | What It Does | How It's Triggered | | ------------- | ----- | ------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | | Rules | 47 | Enforces coding standards on every AI interaction | Automatically — always on | | Agents | 62 | Specialized assistants for complex tasks | On demand — /agent-name | | Skills | 50 | Step-by-step guided workflows with checklists | Contextually — when patterns match | | Commands | 37 | Lightweight, token-efficient quick actions | On demand — /command | | Hooks | 12 | Automation scripts in the AI loop | Event-driven — before/after actions | | Templates | 9 | Scaffolding for handlers, components, tests, etc. | Referenced by skills and agents | ---

How It Works?

Layer 1 — Pre-Processing: Hooks inject project context and block dangerous commands before your prompt reaches the AI. Layer 2 — Rules Engine: 47 always-on rules enforce token efficiency, security, architecture, code standards, database conventions, and testing thresholds. Layer 3 — Specialized Processing: The right component activates — an agent, skill, or command — based on your prompt. Layer 4 — Post-Processing: Hooks validate output, auto-format, scan for secrets, and verify coverage.
