Prerequisite setup for Firebase agent integration: Node.js, CLI authentication, and MCP server installation.
Works with
Verifies Node.js v20+ installation and guides setup via nvm or official installers for macOS, Linux, and Windows
Confirms Firebase CLI availability through npx firebase-tools and authenticates via firebase login with remote environment support
Directs agent-specific MCP server and skill installation for Gemini CLI, Antigravity, Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and other pl
AI-first code editor with Composer
Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
node --versionfirebase-local-env-setupExecute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
Fetches firebase-local-env-setup from firebase/agent-skills and configures it for Cursor.
The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
Restart Cursor to activate firebase-local-env-setup. Access via /firebase-local-env-setup in your agent's command palette.
We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.
Skills execute code in your environment. Always review source, verify the publisher, and test in isolation before production.

Create detailed user stories, acceptance criteria, and feature specs
Example
Generate user stories for 'password reset feature' with acceptance criteria, edge cases, and test scenarios
Reduce spec writing time by 50%, ensure comprehensive coverage
Research competitors, compare features, identify gaps
Example
Analyze 5 competitor products, create feature comparison matrix, suggest differentiation opportunities
Complete competitive research in 2 hours instead of 2 days
Evaluate features using frameworks (RICE, ICE, Kano) and create prioritized backlogs
Example
Score 20 feature ideas using RICE framework, generate prioritized roadmap with rationale

This skill documents the bare minimum setup required for a full Firebase experience for the agent. Before starting to use any Firebase features, you MUST verify that each of the following steps has been completed.
Action: Run node --version.
Handling: Ensure Node.js is installed and the version is >= 20. If Node.js is missing or < v20, install it based on the operating system:
Recommended: Use a Node Version Manager This avoids permission issues when installing global packages.
For macOS or Linux:
nvm and reply when finished. Stop and wait for the user's confirmation.nvm available in the current terminal session by sourcing the appropriate profile:
# For Bash
source ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bashrc
# For Zsh
source ~/.zprofile
source ~/.zshrc
nvm install 24
nvm use 24
For Windows:
nvm-windows and Node.js, and reply when finished. Stop and wait for the user's confirmation.node --version
Alternative: Official Installer
The Firebase CLI is the primary tool for interacting with Firebase services.
npx -y firebase-tools@latest --version.You must be authenticated to manage Firebase projects.
npx -y firebase-tools@latest login.npx -y firebase-tools@latest login --no-localhost instead.To fully manage Firebase, the agent needs specific skills and the Firebase MCP server installed. Identify the agent environment you are currently running in and follow the corresponding setup document strictly.
Read the setup document for your current agent:
CRITICAL AGENT RULE: Do NOT proceed with any other Firebase tasks until EVERY step above has been successfully verified and completed.
Make data-driven prioritization decisions faster
Draft PRDs, status updates, and stakeholder presentations
Example
Create executive summary of Q3 roadmap, monthly progress report, feature launch announcement
Save 3-5 hours/week on communication overhead

💡 Pro Tips
✓ Use when
Use for user story writing, competitive research, roadmap prioritization, stakeholder communication, and PRD drafting. Best for reducing repetitive documentation and research work.
✗ Avoid when
Avoid for strategic product vision (requires deep customer empathy), pricing decisions (needs market and financial expertise), or when face-to-face customer discovery is more valuable than speed.
