Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
node --versionfind-skillsExecute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
Fetches find-skills from vercel-labs/skills and configures it for Cursor.

Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
Restart Cursor to activate find-skills. Access via /find-skills 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.

This skill helps you discover and install skills from the open agent skills ecosystem.
Use this skill when the user:
The Skills CLI (npx skills) is the package manager for the open agent skills ecosystem. Skills are modular packages that extend agent capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, and tools.
Key commands:
npx skills find [query] - Search for skills interactively or by keywordnpx skills add <package> - Install a skill from GitHub or other sourcesnpx skills check - Check for skill updatesnpx skills update - Update all installed skillsBrowse skills at: https://skills.sh/
When a user asks for help with something, identify:
Before running a CLI search, check the skills.sh leaderboard to see if a well-known skill already exists for the domain. The leaderboard ranks skills by total installs, surfacing the most popular and battle-tested options.
For example, top skills for web development include:
vercel-labs/agent-skills — React, Next.js, web design (100K+ installs each)anthropics/skills — Frontend design, document processing (100K+ installs)If the leaderboard doesn't cover the user's need, run the find command:
npx skills find [query]
For example:
npx skills find react performancenpx skills find pr reviewnpx skills find changelogDo not recommend a skill based solely on search results. Always verify:
vercel-labs, anthropics, microsoft) are more trustworthy than unknown authors.When you find relevant skills, present them to the user with:
Example response:
I found a skill that might help! The "react-best-practices" skill provides
React and Next.js performance optimization guidelines from Vercel Engineering.
(185K installs)
To install it:
npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills@react-best-practices
Learn more: https://skills.sh/vercel-labs/agent-skills/react-best-practices
If the user wants to proceed, you can install the skill for them:
npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y
The -g flag installs globally (user-level) and -y skips confirmation prompts.
When searching, consider these common categories:
| Category | Example Queries |
|---|---|
| Web Development | react, nextjs, typescript, css, tailwind |
| Testing | testing, jest, playwright, e2e |
| DevOps | deploy, docker, kubernetes, ci-cd |
| Documentation | docs, readme, changelog, api-docs |
| Code Quality | review, lint, refactor, best-practices |
| Design | ui, ux, design-system, accessibility |
| Productivity | workflow, automation, git |
vercel-labs/agent-skills or ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skillsIf no relevant skills exist:
npx skills initExample:
I searched for skills related to "xyz" but didn't find any matches.
I can still help you with this task directly! Would you like me to proceed?
If this is something you do often, you could create your own skill:
npx skills init my-xyz-skill
