For processing a large-scale documentation organization task, Agent mode is better than Composer mode in Cursor IDE. Here's why:
Agent Mode Advantages:
-
Tool Integration
- Direct access to all 8 agent tools:
- list_dir - codebase_search - read_file - run_terminal_command - grep_search - file_search - edit_file - delete_file
-
Context Awareness
- Maintains context across multiple operations
- Better understanding of project structure
- Can handle complex, multi-step tasks
-
Batch Operations
# Example of multi-step operation in Agent mode /list_dir docs/ /search "API documentation" /edit docs/api/README.md
-
Project-Wide Analysis
- Can analyze entire codebase
- Better at finding relationships between documents
- More effective at organizing content
Composer Mode Limitations:
- Limited to single-file focus
- Less context awareness
- No direct access to project-wide tools
- Better suited for:
- Single file edits
- Code completion
- Simple documentation tasks
Recommended Workflow in Agent Mode:
- Initial Analysis
# Scan project structure
/list_dir .
# Find existing documentation
/search "\.md$"
- Content Organization
# Create directory structure
/run mkdir -p docs/{api,guides,tutorials,reference}
# Move existing docs
/run mv *.md docs/
- Documentation Processing
# Search for specific content
/grep "API|Function|Class" docs/
# Edit documentation files
/edit docs/SUMMARY.md
- Quality Control
# Run documentation tools
/run npm run docs:lint
/run markdownlint docs/**/*.md
Therefore, for your knowledge base generation task, use Agent mode because:
- More powerful toolset
- Better project-wide context
- Efficient batch operations
- Maintains task context
- Better suited for complex documentation tasks
