FAQ
How do I use a skill inside Cursor?
After installing with the command on the detail page, reference the skill in your agent prompt or let the agent select it when the task matches the skill's description. Skills live alongside your project rules and apply on demand.
Do skills replace .cursor/rules?
They complement each other. Rules are always-on project conventions; skills are task-scoped playbooks invoked when needed. Most teams keep style and architecture constraints in rules and repeatable workflows in skills.
Are these skills safe to run on my codebase?
Skills are instruction text, not executables — the risk profile comes from the tools the agent calls while following them. Review a skill's declared tool requirements on its detail page before first use.
