  1. @ Symbols

Overview

Overview of all @ symbols available in Cursor for context and commands
In Cursors input boxes, such as in Composer, Chat and Cmd K, you can use @ symbols by typing @. A popup menu will appear with a list of suggestions, and it will automatically filter to only show the most relevant suggestions based on your input.

Keyboard Shortcuts#

You can navigate through the list of suggestions using the up/down arrow keys. You can hit Enter to select a suggestion. If the suggestion is a category, such as Files, the suggestions will be filtered to only show the most relevant items within that category.
