I just watched your latest and it is spot on. Cursor is amazing once you really go through and set everything up. I feel like a conductor now rather than any sort of hack programmer. Along the lines of your Rules setup that is critical to really getting the most out of it and I went a bit farther by creating a CODE_STANDARDS.md file that I developed with 3.7 and in the rules section I make it the gold standard for all code creation including directory structures. Take a look and see what you think and let me know about improvements.CODE_STANDARDS

Thanks @johnmag2020! I like the term conductor too 
These code standard like superb as well, love it!
I am also tweaking the prompt from session to session and it has really helped.
I need you to analyze the workbench project documentation and provide strategic development recommendations.
Instructions:
- First explore all documentation in the workbench/docs directory to understand the project’s scope, architecture, and current status
- Examine the overall directory structure, with special focus on the workbench folder as the main development area
- Based on your analysis of these materials, provide:
- 3-5 concrete next steps for advancing development
- Potential technical challenges and how to address them
- Suggestions for features or improvements that would enhance the project
- Any architectural changes that might optimize performance or maintainability
Do not summarize all project details - I’m already familiar with them. Instead, focus on forward-looking, actionable insights for continuing development effectively.
I have all my document update requirements in my rules section.
I was having some issues with formatting so I also added a formatting document and haven’t had an issue since.
