Cursor IDE plugin ecosystem — likely unofficial or placeholder repo.

A 'cursor/plugins' repository shows anomalous #1 ranking on Bluesky with near-zero signal elsewhere, suggesting algorithmic artifact or naming collision rather than genuine developer traction. No GitHub, HN, or X presence despite Cursor IDE's real market relevance.

Why now: Cursor IDE genuine popularity causes keyword collision in small-platform search indexes; Bluesky's limited tech discourse corpus amplifies false positives.

• Bluesky rank #1 with score=1.0 (normalized=1.0) — single post or search artifact, not engagement-weighted
• Zero presence on GitHub (100 repos in pool), HN (29 stories), X (0 posts), Reddit (0), Product Hunt (0)
• dev.to rank #20 with score=1.0 — minimal, likely search match not article
• oursRank #61 with score 3.7 — our pipeline correctly deprioritizes
• maxRankGap 19 with only 2 sources — not divergence, just absence

Considerations: This is almost certainly not a real repository. 'cursor/plugins' matches search queries about Cursor IDE plugins, not a specific project. Bluesky's small corpus (10 items) and search-based ranking surface keyword matches as false positives. No GitHub URL exists in candidates — the 'repo' type may be misattributed.

EMERGING SIGNAL · Ignore: Blacklist 'cursor/plugins' pattern from ranking — it's a search query artifact, not a trackable project.
