This is the next how-to guide in the series. The earlier guides focused on auditability for banks and enterprise teams. This one is for Cursor users: solo developers and small teams who watch the usage meter climb and cannot say where the spend went. The hook is MCP. Cursor supports Model Context…
Most of us keep rewriting the same prompts: "review this like a senior engineer", "plan this feature", "write tests for this". So I packaged 243 of them (13 categories: planning, testing, code review, performance, architecture, security, docs…) behind one MCP URL…
Originally published at smartpoststudio.com . Republished with a canonical link. Not every AI assistant that "supports MCP" can actually schedule a post. ChatGPT is the big surprise: OpenAI's own help center says full MCP, the kind that can create or change things, is limited to Business…
TL;DR: Give every editor session an authoritative server snapshot with a monotonically increasing revision, then send ordered deltas that start strictly after that revision. A late joiner must buffer live deltas while its snapshot is in flight, discard duplicates by revision, and resnapshot…
Coding agents have become good at reading code, running commands and opening pull requests. But most of the context they need doesn't live in the repository. It lives in team chat: the bug report from support, the decision in a thread last Tuesday, the release checklist pinned in a channel. This…
When companies like Linear, Cursor, Raycast, Runway, Figma, and OpenAI drop a 45-second product launch video on X, it regularly racks up 500K–3M+ views in 24 hours. Yet when most engineers and founders sit down to record a product launch video, they either record a slow 3-minute Loom walkthrough or…
Every weekday a single, opinionated rule for senior C#/.NET engineers using Cursor. Here's the full week in one read — canonical posts live on the Agentic Architect blog . 7 daily senior rules Rule 8: CancellationToken Propagation Sun 18 Oct Every async method in your codebase should accept and…
Disclosure: I build dochost, the service used in the examples. The setup steps are specific to it; the four rules in the second half apply to any "publish" tool you give an agent. Checked against the live server on October 18, 2026. Most of what an AI assistant writes for other people ends up as a…
AI coding assistants still reach for FastAPI patterns from a few years ago: .dict() , orm_mode , session.query() , HTTPException raised deep inside service code, SQLite in tests. The code runs, but it isn't the code you'd write today. Cursor's project rules fix most of this. A rule is a small .mdc…
Last month I wrote about building a free API over Romania's company registry — 4.2 million firms from ONRC, plus ANAF data, because there was no free way to look a company up by CUI without opening four government portals. The part people actually replied about was the MCP server. So this post is…
