Cursor project templates are great when you live inside Cursor and want IDE-native scaffolding. Kit is a fixed-price pack + GitHub proof for Claude Code / MCP / ASO — installable samples, not another course.
No partnership claim with Cursor. You can use both.
Pick Kit when…
You want a written CLAUDE.md + settings baseline you can drop into a client repo in ~15 minutes
You need a one-tool MCP sample with install notes, not a full IDE workflow
You prefer a flat Stripe price on the kit host over figuring scope alone
Pick Cursor (or stay there) when…
Honesty block: Prefer Cursor project templates if your team already standardizes on Cursor, you need IDE-native rules/index features day one, or you do not want a separate kit host checkout. Kit does not replace Cursor.
