📥 Installation

Interactive Installation (Recommended)

For a fully interactive installation with prompts:

# Step 1: Download the installer
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ivangrynenko/cursor-rules/main/install.php -o install.php

# Step 2: Run the installer interactively
php install.php

This two-step process ensures you get the interactive experience with:

• Prompts to choose which rule sets to install (Core, Web Stack, Python, or All)
• Option to remove the installer file after installation (defaults to yes)

Quick Non-Interactive Installation

For a quick installation without prompts (installs core rules only):

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ivangrynenko/cursor-rules/main/install.php | php

or install rules by tag expression

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ivangrynenko/cursor-rules/main/install.php | php -- --tags "language:javascript category:security"

⚠️ Note: When using the curl piping method above, interactive mode is not possible because STDIN is already being used for the script input. The installer will automatically default to installing core rules only.

Installation with Specific Options

To install with specific options and bypass the interactive mode:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ivangrynenko/cursor-rules/main/install.php | php -- [options]

For example, to install all rules:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ivangrynenko/cursor-rules/main/install.php | php -- --all
