Zenprojectgit Claude Code Plugins Plus Skills Cursor Team Setup

Cursor Team Setup

Configure Cursor for teams and organizations. Covers plan selection, member management, shared configurations, Privacy Mode enforcement, and onboarding workflows.

Plan Comparison

Team Setup Workflow

Step 1: Create Organization

1. Go to cursor.com/settings
2. Click "Create Team" or "Create Organization"
3. Enter organization name and billing details
4. Select plan (Business or Enterprise)

Step 2: Configure Team Settings

Admin Dashboard (Business/Enterprise):

Dashboard Sections:
├── Members         → Invite, remove, assign roles
├── Usage           → Request counts, model usage, costs
├── Privacy         → Privacy Mode enforcement
├── Models          → Restrict available models
├── SSO             → SAML/OIDC configuration
└── Billing         → Plan, invoices, seat management

Step 3: Invite Members

Methods:
1. Email invitation: Admin dashboard > Members > Invite by email
2. Domain auto-join: Allow anyone with @company.com to join
3. SSO provisioning: Users auto-join when they sign in via SSO
4. SCIM (Enterprise): Automatic sync from identity provider

Roles:

Step 4: Enforce Privacy Mode

For Business and Enterprise plans:

1. Admin Dashboard > Privacy
2. Enable "Enforce Privacy Mode for all members"
3. Team members cannot disable Privacy Mode locally
4. Verification: each client pings server every 5 minutes to check enforcement

Privacy Mode guarantees:

• Zero data retention at model providers (OpenAI, Anthropic)
• No code used for model training
• No plaintext code stored on Cursor servers

Step 5: Configure Model Access

Admin Dashboard > Models:

Available models (toggle on/off per team):
  ✅ GPT-4o
  ✅ Claude Sonnet
  ✅ Auto mode
  ❌ Claude Opus (restricted to save costs)
  ❌ o1 (restricted to save costs)
  ✅ cursor-small

Restricting models helps control costs -- premium models consume fast requests faster.

Shared Configuration (via Git)

Team settings that belong in the project repository:

Project Rules

.cursor/rules/
├── project.mdc            # Stack, conventions (alwaysApply: true)
├── security.mdc           # Security constraints (alwaysApply: true)
├── code-style.mdc         # Naming, formatting (alwaysApply: true)
├── typescript.mdc         # TS patterns (glob: **/*.ts)
├── react.mdc              # React patterns (glob: **/*.tsx)
└── testing.mdc            # Test conventions (glob: **/*.test.ts)

Commit these to git. Every team member gets the same AI behavior.

Ignore Files

.cursorignore              # Shared exclusions (commit to git)
.cursorindexingignore      # Shared indexing exclusions (commit to git)

Machine-Local Settings

These are NOT shared via git:

• settings.json (editor preferences -- personal choice)
• keybindings.json (keyboard shortcuts -- personal choice)
• API keys (stored in Cursor's local settings database)

Onboarding New Team Members

Onboarding Checklist

## New Team Member: Cursor Setup (20 minutes)

### Account
[ ] Download Cursor from cursor.com/download
[ ] Sign in with @company.com email
[ ] Verify Business plan active (cursor.com/settings)
[ ] Verify Privacy Mode is ON (Cursor Settings > General)

### Project Setup
[ ] Clone the repository
[ ] Open in Cursor: `cursor /path/to/project`
[ ] Wait for indexing to complete (bottom status bar)
[ ] Verify rules loaded: Cmd+L > type "@Cursor Rules"

### Learn the Basics (10 min)
[ ] Tab completion: type code, accept with Tab
[ ] Chat: Cmd+L > "@Codebase how is auth handled?"
[ ] Inline Edit: select code > Cmd+K > "add error handling"
[ ] Composer: Cmd+I > describe a multi-file task

### Team Conventions
[ ] Read .cursor/rules/ files (our AI guidelines)
[ ] Use Conventional Commits for commit messages
[ ] Start new chats for new tasks (don't reuse old conversations)
[ ] Review all AI-generated code before committing

Buddy System

Pair new team members with experienced Cursor users for their first week. Focus areas:

• When to use Chat vs Composer vs Inline Edit
• How to write effective prompts with @ context
• Common pitfalls (context overflow, blind apply)
• Team-specific rules and conventions

Usage Monitoring

Admin Dashboard Metrics

Adoption Indicators

High adoption:
  - 80%+ team members active weekly
  - Average 10+ requests/day per user
  - Rules files regularly updated in git

Low adoption (needs attention):
  - Team members not signing in
  - Rules files stale or absent
  - No AI commit messages in git history

Enterprise Considerations

• SCIM provisioning: Sync users and groups from Okta/Azure AD automatically (Enterprise only)
• Audit logging: Enterprise plans include detailed usage audit logs for compliance
• Cost allocation: Track AI costs per team/project for internal chargeback
• Vendor review: Request Cursor's SOC 2 Type II report and security questionnaire for procurement

• Cursor Team Documentation
• Cursor Enterprise
