Over the past year, AI coding tools have exploded.

Developers are using:

• Cursor
• Claude Code
• GitHub Copilot
• Windsurf
• Cline
• Continue
• Roo Code

But I kept running into the same problem:

The best prompts, rules, agents, and workflows were scattered everywhere.

Some were hidden in:

• random GitHub repos
• README files
• Discord screenshots
• gists
• Twitter threads
• dotfiles

There was no central place to discover or compare them.

So I built:

https://presets.dev

A searchable directory of AI coding presets, prompts, rules, skills, and agents.

What’s Included

The site currently indexes 1300+ presets across different tools and workflows.

Examples include:

• Cursor rules
• Claude Code agents
• Copilot instructions
• Cline workflows
• MCP integrations
• React/Next.js setups
• Testing and PR review prompts
• Architecture and planning workflows

You can browse by:

• Tool
• Language
• Framework
• Category
• Use case

Why This Matters

Most people are still underusing AI coding tools.

The real productivity gains usually come from:

• structured prompts
• reusable workflows
• custom agents
• project-specific rules
• context engineering

Not just “write me a function”.

A good preset can completely change how an AI assistant behaves.

For example:

• enforcing architecture patterns
• improving code reviews
• generating better commits
• reducing hallucinations
• keeping consistent coding styles

Interesting Pattern I Noticed

After collecting hundreds of presets, some patterns became obvious.

The most effective setups usually:

1. give the AI a clear role
2. define constraints aggressively
3. provide project structure context
4. enforce output formatting
5. include examples

The difference between a vague prompt and a production-ready workflow is massive.

The Goal

I wanted presets.dev to work more like:

• “Awesome Lists” meets search engine
• but focused specifically on AI coding workflows

Instead of hunting through repositories manually.

What’s Next

Some things I’m exploring:

• ratings and community voting
• better preset discovery
• import/export support
• workflow collections
• trending presets
• AI-generated preset recommendations

Would Love Feedback

I’m especially interested in:

• how people structure their AI coding workflows
• what tools you’re using
• what kinds of presets are actually useful in production

If you have favorite setups, workflows, or prompts, I’d love to see them.
