feat(cli): lingo.dev init cursor Command for .cursorrules Setup (#1101)

[SK8-infi]

Add lingo.dev init cursor Command for .cursorrules Setup

Closes #1101

Summary

Adds a new cursor subcommand to lingo.dev init that automates the creation of a .cursorrules file in the project root by copying the template from agents.md.

---

Features & Implementation

• New Command:
  lingo.dev init cursor

  • Generates .cursorrules in your repo root by copying the contents of agents.md (also in the root).

• File Handling:

  • If .cursorrules already exists:
    • Prompts user for overwrite (unless run with --force, which skips prompt and overwrites directly).
    • Skips and notifies if user declines overwrite.
  • Fails with a clear error if agents.md does not exist.

• User Feedback:

  • Success and info spinners/messages for all operations.
  • Clear warning/error output for missing templates or write issues.

• CLI Structure:

  • Refactored init to support subcommands (project for the original logic, cursor as a sibling).
  • All code follows project structure and CLI command registration best practices.

---

Scenarios Tested

• .cursorrules creation when file does not exist.
• Overwriting an existing .cursorrules (prompt and forced mode).
• Skipping overwrite if user answers "No".
• Proper handling and messaging if agents.md is missing.
• Works both interactively and with --force for scripted/non-interactive use.

---

User Experience

• Usage:

  lingo.dev init cursor
  # or, for non-interactive scripting:
  lingo.dev init cursor --force

• Output:

  ✓ Created .cursorrules
  📝 .cursorrules has been created with i18n-specific instructions for Cursor AI.

Ready for review!
This PR brings core parity with expected subcommand conventions and ensures proper rules bootstrapping for the Cursor AI developer workflow.

Hii @sumitsaurabh927
Can you please review the code and give the workflow approval.
Thanks

Hii @sumitsaurabh927 @The-Best-Codes
Can you please review the code please

[The-Best-Codes]

Your PR is looking awesome @SK8-infi 🔥

I've left a review of a couple things that need fixed below. Also, some general reminders:

• Run pnpm run format before committing
• Run pnpm new to create a changeset (do this once for your PR)

[SK8-infi]

@The-Best-Codes Thanks for reviewing the code. Resolved all the issues. The code looks much cleaner now. Please also do point if anything else is off.

[The-Best-Codes]

Just one change I'd recommend making! I haven't tested locally to make sure everything is working fine, but your PR is looking great 😀

I also have two questions:

• Will this work well on Windows
• Will this work well in productions builds that are deployed to npm (the file tree is different in prod than in dev)

[The-Best-Codes]

This should be imported in the packages/cli/src/cli/index.ts file! Basically you should be able to revert the changes in this file and import the cursor command there instead.

[SK8-infi]

Hii @The-Best-Codes
I seem to be a little lost here. Won't adding it in index make it a top level command like "lingo.dev cursor". But we need it to be a subcommand of init like "lingo.dev init cursor".

[The-Best-Codes]

Oh gosh you might be right on that lol. Let me make sure when I get a chance

[The-Best-Codes]

@SK8-infi I was wrong about this!
The current structure of subcommands in the codebase it to give the command a directory, an index.ts with the main command and then subcommands in the directory which are imported into index.ts.

So you might do something like this:

• Create a init/ directory in cmd/
• Create the cursor.ts in the init/ directory
• Create an index.ts in init/ with the current init command logic and import and register the cursor subcommand there
• Remove init.ts

...at least, that's what I would do. You can ask a maintainer too if you want more clarification!

[SK8-infi]

Seems to be a systematic approach to me too(beneficial for other agent sub commands). But would require directory changes... Maybe I should ask maintainers' views

Hii @The-Best-Codes
Did some minor tweaks. It will now work for both windows and prod.
For index.ts I left a reply and would appreciate some help
Thanks
