What it does
Build Loop Cursor is an agent skill from BuildGreatProducts/builder-os. Use when building features with Cursor in any codebase and the work should go through a disciplined build → review → test → fix loop. Triggers on "run the build loop", "build the next task", "continue the plan", "build this feature properly", or any request to implement work from a plan file or a direct feature prompt. Builds from the plan (or the prompt if no plan exists), runs Cursor's /review and fixes every issue found, tests and verifies the feature end to end, fixes anything testing surfaces, and reports…
Its SKILL.md is about 830 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Testing & QA, covering End-to-end testing. The repository describes itself as: BuilderOS is your operating system for building with AI. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Building features with Cursor in any codebase and the work should go through a disciplined build → review → test → fix loop
- Run the build loop
- Build the next task
- Continue the plan
Example prompts
- “run the build loop”
- “build the next task”
- “continue the plan”
- “/build-loop-cursor”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Build. Implement exactly what the task specifies. Simplest implementation that satisfies it, surgical changes, no speculative scope. Match…
- Review. Run Cursor's /review on the changes. Fix all findings in scope — bugs, security issues, edge cases, performance, style in files…
- Test end to end. Run the task's verification step (or the success criteria). Run the full test suite — everything that passed before must…
- Fix. Anything testing finds goes back through the loop: fix → /review → re-test. Never mark a failing task complete; never start the next…
- Continue. Mark the task - [x], update any progress/status line in the plan, and loop to the next task until the requested scope is complete.
- Report. When done, tell the user: what was built and plan progress, review findings fixed and anything deferred, how it was verified…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit fb74cac. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Build Loop Cursor loads about 827 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 151 tokens; SKILL.md has 408 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Cursor Build Loop
Quality-gated feature work: nothing ships on "it compiles" — every increment is built, reviewed, tested end to end, and fixed before the user hears "done."
Source of work
- A plan file exists (roadmap, refactor plan, or task list with
- [ ]checkboxes — search the repo): work the first unchecked task. Tasks are ordered intentionally — never skip ahead. If the plan references spec docs, read only the sections relevant to the current task. - No plan (or the request is outside it): build from the user's prompt. Restate it as a verifiable goal with 2–4 success criteria and confirm scope in one message before building.
The loop
Run per task (or per prompted feature). Do not advance until every step passes.
Build. Implement exactly what the task specifies. Simplest implementation that satisfies it, surgical changes, no speculative scope. Match existing project conventions.
Review. Run Cursor's
/reviewon the changes. Fix all findings in scope — bugs, security issues, edge cases, performance, style in files you touched. If the project has a design system spec (design tokens file, DESIGN.md, theme config), check UI changes against it — no hardcoded colors, type, or spacing that bypass tokens. Note pre-existing issues in untouched code for the report instead of fixing silently. Re-run/reviewuntil clean. If a finding contradicts the task or spec, the spec wins — flag the disagreement.Test end to end. Run the task's verification step (or the success criteria). Run the full test suite — everything that passed before must still pass. Add tests for new logic. Then exercise the feature as a user would: run the app, walk the real flow including empty, loading, and error states.
Fix. Anything testing finds goes back through the loop: fix →
/review→ re-test. Never mark a failing task complete; never start the next task with the app broken.Continue. Mark the task
- [x], update any progress/status line in the plan, and loop to the next task until the requested scope is complete.Report. When done, tell the user: what was built and plan progress, review findings fixed and anything deferred, how it was verified (tests + flow walked), and what needs their attention next. Be honest about anything flaky or partially verified.

Rules
- Skipped review or untested work = unfinished work.
- Don't relitigate plan decisions; if a task seems wrong, ask one specific question rather than guessing.
- Discovered work no task covers? Surface it and propose a task — never silently expand scope.
