Hook

Format on Save Hook

Runs Prettier (or your formatter) automatically after the agent edits a file, so every change lands already formatted. Drop into your Cursor hooks.json.

Setting

Prettier + ESLint Preset

A sane Prettier config plus the ESLint integration so formatting and linting never fight. Drop into your project root and let the agent follow it.
