Stop Symlinking Your Cursor and Claude Code Rules — Generate Them Instead

If you're juggling both Cursor and Claude Code for managing rules in your repositories, you might have tried to simplify by using a shared symlink for their rules/ directories, but that's a bad idea. The formats may seem compatible, but they're subtly different enough to cause silent failures. This article dives into the exact points of incompatibility and offers a nifty code generator to keep both formats in sync from a single source. It's a crucial tip for anyone who wants to avoid headaches and ensure smooth, error-free operations across both tools.
