Chapter 4. Appendix

A Note for Early Release Readers

With Early Release ebooks, you get books in their earliest form—the author’s raw and unedited content as they write—so you can take advantage of these technologies long before the official release of these titles.

This will be the Appendix of the final book. Please note that the GitHub repo will be made active later on.

If you’d like to be actively involved in reviewing and commenting on this draft, please reach out to the editor at [e-mail].

Chapter 4: Coding Agent Prompting Guide

Beyond building features, Cursor enables powerful PM-specific workflows that go beyond just coding. Try some of the prompts below to see how Cursor can help as a thinking partner:

Brainstorm PRDs

"Using this codebase as foundation, create a spec for an agent that does [your idea]"

Understand technical debt

"Analyze this folder and tell me where the code is most complex and hard to maintain"

Debug production issues: Copy error messages directly into chat

"I got this error. What does it mean and how do I fix it?"

Estimate implementation effort

"How complex would it be to add real-time collaboration to this feature?"

Generate documentation

"Write user-facing documentation for this authentication flow"
