Generating navigation menu?

Question / Discussion

I’m having trouble remember where bits of code live in my project. I have a half formed idea that I would like help refining.

I could ask Cursor to look at a feature and generate a list of where the code lives for the controller, the scheduled job that triggers it, the repositories that are used.

For each of those I would want to be able to click through to be taken to the actual file.

I think I would also want to display a status for each of those, such as “not implemented” or “needs updating” so that I could see at glance which parts of a feature still need to be worked on.

tl:dr - is it possible to generate a file that would result in a navigable menu in the left panel, where the folder based navigation is.

Or more generally, how can I can setup and control a panel in Cursor, to display a navigable menu?
