chore: remove stale Cursor-era artifacts (.cursor-plugin, agents/) by iap · Pull Request #143 · iap/pstack-hermes

iap · 2026-11-05T23:36:03Z

Removes leftover Cursor-era directories that are inert on the Hermes portable path. The converter already drops these during conversion, and bans.py lists them as root tooling dirs.

Validation: ruff PASS, pytest PASS.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Chores
- Removed the editor plugin configuration and two bundled AI agent instruction sets. These tools and their associated guidance are no longer included.
Documentation
- Clarified that the package is Hermes-native and does not include the Cursor integration. Cursor users are directed to install the upstream plugin for Cursor-side functionality. Updated the package’s generated documentation to reflect this guidance.

Remove stale Cursor plugin and agent artifacts

⚙️ Configuration changes 📝 Documentation 🕐 10-20 Minutes

AI Description

• Remove Cursor plugin metadata and two agent definitions unused by the Hermes portable package.
• Keep the repository aligned with the converter’s existing exclusion of Cursor-only artifacts.

High-Level Assessment

Removing the checked-in artifacts matches the converter’s existing Hermes-only output. Retaining them for Cursor dual-loading was considered, but would work against the stated cleanup; no runtime replacement is needed.

Walkthrough

The change deletes the Cursor plugin manifest and two agent instruction files. The README and generated README now describe the repository as Hermes-native and direct Cursor-side users to upstream pstack. The provenance timestamp and converter hash prefix are updated.

Changes: Cursor plugin artifact removal

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Delete Cursor plugin artifacts `.cursor-plugin/plugin.json`, `agents/comment-sicko.md`, `agents/poteto-agent.md`	The plugin manifest and both agent instruction files are removed.
Update repository description `README.md`, `tools/convert.py`, `.build-provenance.txt`	The README and converter output describe the repository as Hermes-native and direct Cursor-side users to upstream pstack. The provenance timestamp and converter hash prefix are updated.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 39934

The package is now Hermes-only, but contributor instructions still require the deleted Cursor artifacts. Align those instructions to avoid misdirecting maintainers.

Review details

Systems and components

observed — tools (service) was modified; 1 changed file maps to changed impact.
observed — agents (service) was modified; 2 changed files map to changed impact.
observed — README.md (service) was modified; 1 changed file maps to changed impact.

Before / after behavior

observed — Modified behavior in README.md: The README removes the claim that agents/ and .cursor-plugin/ remain in the tree for structural Cursor compatibility, and now describes the tree as Hermes-native only while directing Cursor-side users to upstream pstack.
observed — Modified behavior in agents/comment-sicko.md: The Comment Sicko agent instructions were deleted, including its comment-removal rules, retention exceptions, review procedures, reporting requirements, and prohibition on editing application code.
observed — Modified behavior in agents/poteto-agent.md: The poteto-agent routing configuration, background-agent setting, and instructions for reading poteto-mode and navigating to applicable principle skills were removed.
observed — Modified behavior in tools/convert.py: The README no longer describes agents/ and .cursor-plugin/ as retained for Cursor dual-load; it now states that the tree is Hermes-native only and points Cursor-side users to upstream pstack.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Update the provenance notes.

The generated provenance still says agents/ and .cursor-plugin/plugin.json are retained for Cursor dual-load. Those claims contradict the removed files and the updated README. (raw.githubusercontent.com) Update these notes and rebuild the package.

As per coding guidelines: “change the converter and rebuild.”
