Cursor mentoringfor developers and teams

Also known as Vibe Code Friend

For engineering leads and developers whose team bought Cursor seats and got messier PRs. I’m the first Cursor Ambassador in Indonesia, and I ship client work in Cursor every week.

13+ years shipping web products. Sessions in English or Indonesian.

What Cursor mentoring looks like

Cursor mentoring is hands-on coaching on your team’s real code. I start with two or three developers on one repo, write shared project rules with them, and set up a review habit for AI-generated code. Once that loop works, we expand it to the rest of the team over about 30 days. Sessions run remotely, in English or Indonesian.

Project rules are the first thing we set up. Here’s how I write Cursor project rules.

Cursor AI for teams: where it goes wrong

  • Everyone prompts Cursor differently, so the same feature comes back in five styles
  • PRs got bigger and nobody can explain half the diff
  • Senior developers spend review time rewriting AI output
  • The team tried Cursor for a week, then drifted back to old habits

What your team walks away with

The review habit starts from my PR review checklist for AI-generated code.

Code that looks like your codebase

Shared project rules live in the repo, so Cursor follows your conventions and new code matches the old.

PRs your reviewers can explain

Reviewers know what to check in an AI-written diff, which means fewer surprises after merge.

A workflow people keep using

Developers know when to use chat, when to hand a task to the agent, and when to type it themselves.

A setup the whole team can copy

The first small group proves the setup on real work, then it becomes the template for everyone else.

Cursor mentoring FAQ

What does Cursor training for teams cover?+

Three things your team keeps after I leave: shared project rules in the repo, a clear way to split work between chat, the agent, and plain typing, and a review habit for AI-generated code. We build all three on one of your real repos.

Is this a tour of Cursor features?+

No. Every session happens on your repo and your planned tickets. I ship client work in Cursor every week, so we spend the time on the problems that come up in real work: messy context, oversized diffs, and code that ignores your conventions.

How long does Cursor mentoring take?+

A team rollout runs over about 30 days. It starts with two or three developers on one repo, then expands to the rest of the team once the rules and review habit work. Solo developers can book tutoring sessions at their own pace.

Do you mentor in English and Indonesian?+

Both. I’m based in Sidoarjo, Indonesia, and mentor teams in Indonesia and remotely worldwide.

Can you build the feature for us instead?+

Yes. If you want the work shipped more than you want the team trained, hire me to build it. I take Next.js, headless WordPress, and AI feature projects.
