.windsurfrules import.

Automatic import

Rabbit IDE detects .windsurfrules files at the workspace root and loads them into the agent system prompt. This makes migration from Windsurf seamless -- your existing rules work without changes.

Compatibility

.windsurfrules files use the same plain-text format as.rabbitrules. All natural-language instructions are respected. Windsurf-specific cascade directives are ignored since they target Windsurf's proprietary agent runtime.

Coexistence

You can keep both .windsurfrules and.rabbitrules in the same project. Both are loaded..rabbitrules has higher priority on conflicting instructions.

CI and shared repos

If your team uses multiple AI IDEs, commit all rule files to the repo. Each IDE picks up its own format. Rabbit reads all three:.rabbitrules, .cursorrules,.windsurfrules.
