Standard Files

• global_rules.md: Global rules are rules that will be applied to Cascade in all workspaces.
• .windsurfrules: Local rules are rules that will be applied to Cascade in the current workspace.

Documentation Requirements

Each contribution should include a README.md to help others understand and get the most out of your contribution. Here are some ideas of what you might want to include:

• Share why you created this and how it helps you
• Cool examples of non-standard files that make Windsurf even better, like:
  • Helpful documentation you reference
  • Your favorite templates or snippets
  • Handy reference materials or cheat sheets
• Any setup steps others might need
• Tips and tricks you've discovered (consider adding these to the main README.md too!)
• Things to watch out for or current limitations
• Real-world examples where your contribution shines
• Anything else you think would help others!

This list is just to get you started - feel free to organize your README.md in whatever way best tells your contribution's story.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for detailed contribution guidelines.
