cursor-tab-pachinko

A fun hook for Cursor that plays pachinko sounds when you accept tab completions.

After 4 tab completions, it opens a special YouTube video: https://youtu.be/TgQAFTvbpaI?si=a4iEQsW5p3SvhsSQ&t=1

Setup

1. Create hooks directory

mkdir -p ~/.cursor/hooks

2. Create the hook script

Create ~/.cursor/hooks/pachinko.sh:

#!/bin/sh
bunx cursor-tab-pachinko@latest

Or with npm:

#!/bin/sh
npx cursor-tab-pachinko@latest

Make it executable:

chmod +x ~/.cursor/hooks/pachinko.sh

3. Configure Cursor hooks

Create or edit ~/.cursor/hooks.json:

{
	"version": 1,
	"hooks": {
		"afterTabFileEdit": [
			{
				"command": "./hooks/pachinko.sh"
			}
		]
	}
}

4. Restart Cursor

Restart Cursor to apply the hook configuration.

How it works

• Each tab completion increments a counter (stored in a temp file)
• Plays a different sound for each count (0-3)
• On the 5th completion, opens the YouTube video and resets the counter
