Which public repos are easiest for Cursor to work in?
Repos from GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket, ranked by their Cursor score rather than the average across every agent. surrealdb/surrealdb leads with 97.6.
The methodology lists the weight Cursor gives each check and the documentation it comes from.
Cursor — Per Cursor's Rules docs, reads `.cursor/rules/*.mdc` and AGENTS.md as the canonical repo-side input. Type config and a clean README still aid the codebase index but aren't the docs-cited signal.
