Context-driven development for Cursor: setup, spec, plan, implement, review, and revert.
Measure twice, code once.
Add the Cursorcade marketplace, then install conductor:
/add-plugin https://github.com/newtonmunene99/cursorcade
Then install conductor from the marketplace panel.
/remove-plugin conductor
This unregisters the plugin from Cursor. Project files under .cursor/ are not removed.
Alternatively: Dashboard → Settings → Plugins → disable or uninstall conductor.
For local symlinks: rm ~/.cursor/plugins/local/conductor, then reload Cursor.

rules/conductor.mdc.cursor/context/, .cursor/specs/, .cursor/plans/todos and status fieldsBundled under templates/:
workflow.md — Default TDD workflow (copied to .cursor/context/workflow.md on setup)plan-authoring-guide.md — Plan quality rules and mandatory sync todos (plugin reference, not copied on setup)code_styleguides/ — Language style guides (copied to .cursor/context/code_styleguides/)When running setup, locate templates from the installed plugin path (~/.cursor/plugins/local/conductor/templates/ or plugin cache).
Conductor is derived from gemini-cli-extensions/conductor, the original Conductor extension for Gemini CLI. That project acknowledges Keith Ballington’s .conductor as groundwork.
This Cursor adaptation repackages Conductor as a plugin (rules, skills, commands) with project artifacts under .cursor/context/, .cursor/specs/, and .cursor/plans/.
