Hotkey (primary)

Key Action
Ctrl+Alt+T (Windows/Linux) Step 1: category (34 types) → Step 2: prompt → insert into chat
Cmd+Alt+T (macOS) Same

Press Ctrl, Alt, and T together (T = Template).

Hotkey (alternative)

Key Action
Ctrl+Alt+Shift+P (Windows/Linux) Same two-step QuickPick
Cmd+Alt+Shift+P (macOS) Same

Commands

Command Action
Pick Prompt (Category, then Template) Same as hotkey (two steps)
Insert Prompt into Chat (All Categories) Single list, all 710 prompts
Insert Website / Python / JavaScript Prompt One category only (legacy shortcuts)

Via Command Palette

F1 or Ctrl+Shift+P → Pick Prompt (or filter Cursor Chat Prompt Library).
Use when you do not remember the hotkey or it conflicts with another extension.

Requirements

  • Cursor recommended (workbench.action.chat.open and Composer commands).
  • Plain VS Code: prompts copy to clipboard if chat cannot open.

Install (development)

cd ide-plugins\vscode\cursor-chat-prompt-library
build.bat
cursor --install-extension build\cursor-chat-prompt-library-0.7.7.vsix

Reload the window. Primary: Ctrl+Alt+T; alternative: Ctrl+Alt+Shift+P (see Via Command Palette for F1).

Maintaining prompts

  • Bundled data: prompts/*.json (one file per category).
  • Regenerate extended categories (batch 1): node scripts/generate-extra-categories.mjs
  • Append batch 2 (+10 per file): node scripts/append-batch-2.mjs (uses scripts/batch-2-prompts.mjs)
  • Display order: CATEGORY_FILE_ORDER in src/promptStore.js.
