Example prompts to use with this skill

Prompt

Set up basic Cursor usage tracking

Output

I'll help you create a simple usage tracker:

from cursor_analytics import CursorAnalytics

analytics = CursorAnalytics()
analytics.log_session(
    mode='composer',
    model='claude-3.5-sonnet',
    tokens_used=2500,
    code_lines=45,
    duration_minutes=15
)

# Get weekly summary
summary = analytics.get_usage_summary(days=7)
print(f"Sessions: {summary['total_sessions']}")
print(f"Lines generated: {summary['total_lines']}")

Prompt

How can I optimize my Cursor costs?

Output

Here's how to track and optimize costs:

from cost_optimizer import CostOptimizer

optimizer = CostOptimizer()
breakdown = optimizer.get_cost_breakdown(days=30)
print(f"Monthly cost: ${breakdown['total_cost']:.2f}")

# Get optimization suggestions
suggestions = optimizer.suggest_optimizations()
for tip in suggestions['suggestions']:
    print(f"💡 {tip}")

Tips: - Use claude-3.5-sonnet for most tasks - Reserve opus for complex refactoring - Track which models you use most
