Unpopular Opinion: The "Work" is now writing .mdc files, not the actual prompts.
Prompt
I’ve realized that I’m getting much better results by treating .mdc files like a PRD or architecture doc. Instead of spending time prompting (and re-prompting) to get the logic right, I’ve shifted my effort into creating detailed rules first. Once the MDC is solid, Cursor knows exactly what to build and the chat becomes secondary. Anyone else finding that "Rule-first" development is way more efficient than "Chat-first"?
