Can I have global rules for all my projects?

Yes, Ruler supports a global configuration via 'ruler init --global' which stores settings in your home directory (~/.config/ruler/) for use across all your development work.

Which AI agents does Ruler support?

Ruler supports over 18 popular agents including Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Aider, Cline, OpenHands, and many others.

What is MCP propagation in Ruler?

MCP propagation allows you to define your Model Context Protocol servers once in a central mcp.json and have Ruler automatically update the configuration files for every supported agent in your project.

Will Ruler overwrite my existing agent instructions?

Ruler provides a 'merge' strategy by default that combines your existing native configs with Ruler's central rules. It also creates .bak files for every file it modifies so you can easily revert.
