Format System
Packages convert automatically to any editor format during install:
# Same package → different editors
prpm install @sanjeed5/react --as cursor # → .cursor/rules/
prpm install @sanjeed5/react --as claude # → .claude/skills/
prpm install @sanjeed5/react --as continue # → .continue/rules/
prpm install @sanjeed5/react --as windsurf # → .windsurf/rules/
prpm install @sanjeed5/react --as copilot # → .github/instructions/
prpm install @sanjeed5/react --as kiro # → .kiro/steering/
Available formats: cursor, claude, continue, windsurf, copilot, kiro, gemini, opencode, codex, droid, aider, agents.md, generic
Subtypes (use with --subtype): rule, agent, skill, slash-command, hook, tool, chatmode, prompt
Self-Improvement Pattern
When working on a task, search PRPM for relevant expertise:
# Keyword search (use --no-interactive to avoid prompts)
prpm search react --no-interactive
prpm search "testing best practices" --no-interactive
# AI-powered semantic search (better for natural language queries)
prpm ai-search "how to structure a React project with TypeScript"
prpm ai-search "rules for writing clean API endpoints"
# Filter by format or subtype
prpm search react --format cursor --no-interactive
prpm search typescript --subtype agent --no-interactive
# Install what looks useful
prpm install @username/package-name
Common Workflows
Find and install a package:
prpm search "your topic" --no-interactive
prpm info @scope/package-name # Check details
prpm install @scope/package-name
Install a collection (multiple related packages):
prpm collections search frontend --no-interactive
prpm collections info nextjs-pro
prpm install collections/nextjs-pro
Check what's installed:
prpm list # Show installed packages
prpm list --format json # Machine-readable output
