I'm trying to get Cursor to understand Mesop but it seems to only know older Mesop style of coding.
Anyone been able to setup cursor to use the @web to generate Mesop code with the correct syntax?

A while ago I generated a set of text files as prompt instructions to teach LLMs how to write Mesop apps: https://gist.github.com/wwwillchen/6d4e495a6c9b2aa5b747c71a3dc6e946

I've gotten moderate success with this approach.

I end up solving it by merging all the docs (.md files in to one big mesop_manual.md file and created a .cursorsrules that adds it to every request (this might end up using a lot of tokens though, but if the model does KV caching it should be fine).

It works if the file I'm referencing contains Mesop code, if I just write a instruction in the composer without code referense it doesn't understand I wanna use Mesop (that might be me prompting lazy too).

.cursorrules
{
  "rules": [
    {
      "pattern": "**/mesop_manual.md",
      "description": "Ensure that the mesop manual is referenced before AI queries.",
      "actions": [
        {
          "type": "read",
          "trigger": "before_query",
          "message": "Refer to the mesop manual before sending queries.",
          "context": {
            "file": "mesop_manual.md",
            "highlight": true
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}
