How to use openai-knowledge on Cursor
AI-first code editor with Composer
Prerequisites
Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
- ›Cursor installed and configured on your machine
- ›Node.js 16+ with npm — verify with
node --version - ›Active project directory where you want to add
openai-knowledge
Run the install command
Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
Fetches openai-knowledge from openai/openai-agents-python and configures it for Cursor.
Select Cursor when prompted
The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:
Verify installation
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
Restart Cursor to activate openai-knowledge. Access via /openai-knowledge in your agent's command palette.
Security Notice
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.

Overview
Use the OpenAI Developer Documentation MCP server to search and fetch exact docs (markdown), then base your answer on that text instead of guessing.
Workflow
1) Check whether the Docs MCP server is available
If the mcp__openaiDeveloperDocs__* tools are available, use them.
If you are unsure, run codex mcp list and check for openaiDeveloperDocs.
2) Use MCP tools to pull exact docs
- Search first, then fetch the specific page or pages.
mcp__openaiDeveloperDocs__search_openai_docs→ pick the best URL.mcp__openaiDeveloperDocs__fetch_openai_doc→ retrieve the exact markdown (optionally with ananchor).
- When you need endpoint schemas or parameters, use:
mcp__openaiDeveloperDocs__get_openapi_specmcp__openaiDeveloperDocs__list_api_endpoints
Base your answer on the fetched text and quote or paraphrase it precisely. Do not invent flags, field names, defaults, or limits.
3) If MCP is not configured, guide setup (do not change config unless asked)
Provide one of these setup options, then ask the user to restart the Codex session so the tools load:
- CLI:
codex mcp add openaiDeveloperDocs --url https://developers.openai.com/mcp
- Config file (
~/.codex/config.toml):- Add:
[mcp_servers.openaiDeveloperDocs] url = "https://developers.openai.com/mcp"
- Add:
