.cursorrules to .mdc migration

Q: How do I migrate .cursorrules to the current Cursor rules format?

Paste the old file below. The converter wraps it as .cursor/rules/project.mdc with description and alwaysApply: true, which is what current Cursor loads. Keep .cursorrules only if an older build still lists it. If you keep both, regenerate them together or they will drift.
Q: Does .cursorrules still work?

Older Cursor builds still read a root .cursorrules file. Current project rules are .mdc files in .cursor/rules. A new project should use the .mdc file.
Q: Where do I save the converted file?

Create .cursor/rules/ if it is missing and save the download as .cursor/rules/project.mdc. Commit it and start a new chat.
