# Cursor Context Management
## Overview
Control what Cursor sees so each conversation has the minimum relevant, policy-permitted context required for a reliable answer or edit.
## Prerequisites
- A task scope, approved privacy setting, data classification, and working ignore configuration.
- Relevant files/interfaces that can be shared without credentials, customer data, or unrelated repositories.
## Instructions
1. Start with the exact files, symbols, and constraints needed; avoid indiscriminate `@Codebase` use.
2. Inspect context pills/attachments before submitting and remove stale or sensitive material.
