Dependency upgrade risky? Plan small regression-check batches
Use Cursor with versions, lockfiles and test commands to prepare an upgrade sequence and acceptance plan through the test workflow below, then review it. Matching tools and permissions are required.
Execution environment and usage
AI / software
Cursor
Where to operate
Plan Mode in Cursor with a project copy; inspect and plan without clicking Build.
Getting started
- Use the official setup guide to install/sign in to Cursor; open an isolated test project or data copy.
- Supply versions, lockfiles and test commands and the prompt below. Confirm the scope before allowing necessary actions.
- Inspect the resulting upgrade sequence and acceptance plan; record anything not run or not verified.
Setup and plan requirements
Requires access to Cursor, authorized test data and a matching runtime; file writes and shell commands must stay within approved scope. Preparation: Prepare a recoverable branch, lockfiles, test commands and specified target versions.
Prompt portability limits
Adapt the wording to another coding assistant only after separately configuring files, runtime, test tools and integrations. Renaming the tool does not establish compatibility.
Usage limitations
Start by reading data and proposing changes; no automatic writes or commands are authorized. Approve the runtime and commands separately for subsequent tests.

適用情境 / When to use
Use Cursor with versions, lockfiles and test commands to prepare an upgrade sequence and acceptance plan through the test workflow below, then review it. Matching tools and permissions are required. He merged after corrections and checks, with existing tests and documentation providing important context.
步驟 / Steps
- Prepare a recoverable branch, lockfiles, test commands and specified target versions.
- Compare official migration guidance and propose dependency order with acceptance checks.
- Inspect test results and before/after behavior; identify untested areas.
提示詞 / Prompt
For [project copy] and [specified dependencies/target versions], inspect lockfiles and official migration guides before proposing minimal change batches, risks and rollback. Define acceptance using [critical behavior/test commands], then modify a branch only after approval. Report actual executions and untested areas; do not add unrelated refactors, merge or deploy.
留意事項 / Cautions
- Newer versions do not imply compatibility.
- Do not automatically merge, deploy or remove compatibility patches.
來源限制 / Evidence limits
One project does not establish success or regression-free upgrades elsewhere.
