List and Inspect Project Assets

When you need to reference existing assets in your codebase, use `list_files` to get a paginated list of files. Furthermore, the agent can pull specific technical details using `get_file_details`, giving you exact metadata right where you're coding.

Manage File State and Location

The Cursor AI calls these tools to handle asset state changes. You can mark temporary files as permanent with `store_file` or, conversely, use `copy_file` to duplicate an existing file into a different storage location for your script.

Cleanup and Organization

The toolset lets you manage deletions safely. For single files, call `delete_file`. If you're cleaning up large groups of assets, use `batch_delete_files` to permanently remove multiple files in one go.
