Hey, thanks for the report. This is a known issue. Cursor doesn’t follow symlinks yet when indexing skills (and rules too). The team is aware.
Related reports:
Other users say symlinks in the project-level .cursor/skills (in the project root) seem to work in v2.4.21, but symlinks in the home directory ~/.cursor/skills don’t. WSL might behave differently, but it’s worth trying.
Workaround for now: copy the files directly instead of using symlinks until it’s fixed.
