Fast answer: Claude Code and Cursor can help generate FiveM scripts when they work from a small file plan and you review every framework assumption. Treat them as coding assistants, not a replacement for staging tests.
Last updated: July 6, 2026.
Recommended workflow
- Create a resource folder with
fxmanifest.lua. - Add empty
client,serverandconfig.luafiles. - Ask Claude Code or Cursor to inspect the files and propose a plan.
- Generate one small feature at a time.
- Review events, permissions and database writes.
- Test on staging before production.
Prompt for Claude Code or Cursor
Inspect this FiveM resource. Framework: QBCore. Goal: small delivery job. First return a file plan and risk checklist. Do not write code until the plan is approved. Flag every client/server boundary, database write, reward path and dependency.
What to verify manually
- The manifest lists every script and file.
- Server events validate the player and job state.
- Client code does not grant money or items directly.
- Database tables and dependencies are documented.
- Restart and reconnect behavior is tested.
