Every senior developer using Cursor pays a hidden tax: 15+ minutes a day re-explaining DI patterns, project boundaries, and architectural decisions the AI forgot the moment you closed the last session.
At a senior billing rate that's ~£4,650 of lost time per engineer, per year.
This isn't a Cursor problem. It's a persistence problem.
Agentic Architect is not another prompt pack. It's a directory-level configuration system of four scoped .mdc rules plus a stateful persistence engine that gives Cursor true long-term memory across sessions.

| Rule | What it does |
|---|---|
arch-core.mdc |
Enforces SOLID boundaries. Detects which layer the current file lives in (Domain / Application / Infrastructure / Api) and refuses suggestions that cross it. No more EF Core in your Domain layer. |
dotnet-di.mdc |
Specialised auditor for constructor injection and service lifetimes. Catches Scoped→Singleton capture bugs before they ship. Knows IServiceCollection, Scrutor, Autofac patterns by heart. |
bug-breaker.mdc |
A circuit breaker that stops the AI when it enters a hallucination loop. Forces a re-read of the file and a targeted question instead of doubling down. |
persistence.mdc ⭐ |
The engine. Maintains your LEARNING_LOG.md — the persistent "brain" of your project. Every architectural decision gets logged and re-hydrated automatically across sessions. |

# 1. Get the kit from Gumroad
# → https://agenticarchitect.gumroad.com/l/dotnet-persistence-kit
# 2. Drop the rules into your project
mkdir -p .cursor/rules
cp ~/Downloads/agentic-architect/*.mdc .cursor/rules/
# 3. Seed the Learning Log
cp ~/Downloads/agentic-architect/LEARNING_LOG.template.md LEARNING_LOG.md
# 4. Open Cursor and ask:
# "Hydrate the Learning Log from the current codebase."
# The AI scans your repo and seeds the log with detected patterns.
# 5. Commit
git add .cursor/ LEARNING_LOG.md
git commit -m "chore: install Agentic Architect persistence framework"That's it. Next session, the AI starts hydrated.

Isn't this just a few prompt files I could write myself?
You could — and we did, over hundreds of hours, across real production .NET codebases. The framework isn't the prompts; it's the directory-level loading strategy, the circuit-breaker pattern, and the Learning Log protocol that gives Cursor true statefulness. Writing it yourself is a weekend project. Maintaining it across an evolving architecture is a second job.
Will this work with Cursor's built-in rules feature?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The
.mdc files plug directly into Cursor's native rules system. We just use it with discipline.
Does it work for non-.NET languages?
The
persistence.mdc engine and bug-breaker.mdc are language-agnostic. arch-core.mdc and dotnet-di.mdc are tuned for C#/.NET. If you're not in the .NET world, you'll get value from 2 of the 4 rules — your call whether £19.99 is worth that.
Is it a subscription?
No. One-time £19.99. Lifetime updates. MIT-licensed. We hate subscriptions as much as you do.
How is this different from generic "Cursor rules" repos on GitHub?
Most public rules are monolithic — a single rule dumped on every prompt, blowing your token budget. Agentic Architect uses scoped, directory-aware loading so only relevant rules activate for the file you're in. Plus, none of them solve persistence — the actual root cause of AI drift.
