+
+## Cursor Cloud specific instructions
+
+### Project overview
+
+PraisonAI is a multi-AI agents framework. The monorepo has three main packages under `src/`:
+
+| Package | Path | Language | Purpose |
+|---------|------|----------|---------|
+| **praisonai-agents** | `src/praisonai-agents/` | Python | Core SDK (agents, tools, memory, workflows) |
+| **praisonai** | `src/praisonai/` | Python | CLI wrapper, integrations, UI/API |
+| **praisonai-ts** | `src/praisonai-ts/` | TypeScript | TypeScript port of the framework |
+
+### Python environment
+
+- Python 3.12, using `uv` as package manager (installed at `~/.local/bin/uv`).
+- Both Python packages are installed in editable mode via `uv pip install --system -e`.
+- Ensure `$HOME/.local/bin` is on PATH for `uv`.
+- `dist-packages` ownership has been changed to `ubuntu` user to avoid permission errors with `uv pip install --system`.
+
+### Running tests
+
+**praisonai-agents (core SDK):**
+```bash
+cd src/praisonai-agents
+OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-test-key" python3 -m pytest tests/unit/ --timeout=60 -q
+```
+Note: Some test files fail to collect due to a missing `praisonaiagents.output.models` module (referenced by `task/task.py`). To skip those, add `--ignore=tests/unit/agents --ignore=tests/unit/workflows --ignore=tests/unit/test_task_execution_config.py`.
+
+**praisonai (wrapper/CLI):**
+```bash
+cd src/praisonai
+OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-test-key" PYTHONPATH="/workspace/src/praisonai-agents:$PYTHONPATH" python3 -m pytest tests/unit/ --timeout=60 -q
+```
+Same `output.models` import errors affect some test files here too.
+
+**TypeScript SDK:**
+```bash
+cd src/praisonai-ts
+OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-test-key" npx jest --no-cache --passWithNoTests
+```
+The TS build (`tsc`) has pre-existing errors from missing `db/`, `cli/output/`, and `@ai-sdk/provider-utils` modules. Tests still largely pass (446/463).
+
+### Running the application
+
+- **CLI:** `python3 -m praisonai --help` (version 4.5.15)
+- **Agent hello world:**
+  ```python
+  from praisonaiagents import Agent
+  agent = Agent(name="assistant", instructions="Be helpful.")
+  response = agent.start("Hello!")
+  ```
+- Requires a valid `OPENAI_API_KEY` environment variable for any LLM calls.
+
+### Known caveats
+
+- No linting tools (ESLint, ruff, flake8) are configured in this repository.
+- The Rust SDK (`src/praisonai-rust/`) requires Cargo 1.85+ (edition2024 support); the default system Cargo 1.83 is too old.
+- `pnpm install` for the TS SDK should use `--ignore-scripts` to skip the broken `prepare` (build) step during install.

+optional SSL bypass:
+
+```bash
+export PRAISONAI_DISCORD_SSL_VERIFY=false
+export PRAISONAI_TELEGRAM_SSL_VERIFY=false
+```
+
+Default is `true` (secure).
