How is this proof of vibecoding?
Cursor is an “ai powered” code editor, cursorrules is a file it uses for configuration.

Unfortunately, so is Visual Studio and VS Code.

The presence of an AI assistant isn’t evidence of vibe coding. Even using that AI assistant to auto-complete lines or small sections of boilerplate isn’t vibe coding. To do that you need to ask the AI for whole swaths of code and then just accept what it gives you.

Proton’s repo here is open source. What portion of it presents issues? Any?

Sure, but cursor is different since it’s marketed as an Ai editor. VScode is just a general one.

Ai code is plausible bullshit, it may work, it may have bugs or vulnerabilities. It’s harder to spot these since its plausible bullshit.

but cursor is different since it’s marketed as an Ai editor. VScode is just a general one.

See, that is just the thing: VS Code is marketed as an AI editor. The homepage is literally an autoplaying video of an AI writing code with this title, big and bold, right at the top of the screen:

Visual Studio Code - The open source AI code editor | Your home for multi-agent development

Visual Studio Code redefines AI-powered coding with GitHub Copilot for building and debugging modern web and cloud applications. Visual Studio Code is free and available on your favorite platform - Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Poor choice of words on my part, The only appeal of cursor over vscode is the ai features.
