Wiring to Cursor

This page contains notes about my efforts to connect Cursor to MediaWiki.

Reason Why This Is Necessary

Thus far, I have documented functional requirements in a wiki page and then copy/paste it to Cursor. As the project gets more complex, I realize that I need to create (or have AI create) documents that define the guiding principles, architectural decisions, and other details about the user experience. Those documents need to always be available to the AI to reference. These documents will be updated with every new feature added, describing how each feature is implemented, what its dependencies are, and how it interacts with other elements.

A major benefit of this is that it forces me to write comprehensive and detailed notes, because they will be read by the AI.

Mechanics

I create an API key in MediaWiki and provide that to Cursor, and then Cursor can read and edit every page.

Requirements Pages

These wiki pages will be provided to Cursor to define various aspects of the project:

• Wiki Page Types
• New User Onboarding
