Context

Cursor's context awareness enables it to understand your entire codebase, providing more accurate and relevant assistance. Through intelligent indexing and workspace management, Cursor can analyze multiple repositories and large codebases effectively.

Core Capabilities

Codebase Indexing

Automatically indexes your entire codebase to provide context-aware assistance and more accurate code suggestions.

Multi-Repository Support

Create workspaces that include multiple repositories, enabling AI to understand and work across interconnected projects.

Requirement:Files must be locally within the same base folder for cross-repo indexing

Large Monorepo Management

Strategic indexing configuration for large monorepos through .cursorignore files.

  • Configure .cursorignore per developer
  • Add .cursorignore to global .gitignore
  • Optimize indexing for specific work areas

💡 Pro Tip:You can check indexing status in Cursor Settings > Features > Codebase Indexing
