### Where does the bug appear (feature/product)? Cursor IDE ### Describe the Bug If I use the Curser Cloud Agents, I’m missing all the skills that are within the project. They are just not appearing. I have them on the 1st prompt, but as soon as I start the 2nd prompt within the session, they are gone. And I’m talking about those that are already committed to the repository and should be there once checked out. ### Steps to Reproduce First, start a new Cloud session with an initial prompt. Then, for the 2nd prompt, type in “/” and wait for the autocomplete of skills to appear. ### Expected Behavior The list of skills should be shown from my project. ### Operating System Linux ### Version Information Version: 3.9.16 VS Code Extension API: 1.105.1 Commit: 042b3c1a4c53f2c3808067f519fbfc67b72cad80 Date: 2026-06-27T06:41:01.941Z Layout: glass Build Type: Stable Release Track: Default Electron: 40.10.3 Chromium: 144.0.7559.236 Node.js: 24.15.0 V8: 14.4.258.32-electron.0 xterm.js: 6.1.0-beta.256 OS: Linux x64 7.0.0-27-generic ### For AI issues: which model did you use? doesn’t matter ### Does this stop you from using Cursor No - Cursor works, but with this issue ---

Thanks for the report @nerumo! This is a known issue we’re tracking and working on a fix. ---

Hey @nerumo! Thanks again for the report. This will be fixed in our next release, _v3.11_. ---
**Author:** ![jsolly](https://sea3.discourse-cdn.com/cursor1/user_avatar/forum.cursor.com/jsolly/32/33752_2.png) [@jsolly](https://forum.cursor.com/u/jsolly)\ **Post date:** [July 19, 2026, 1:22am UTC](https://forum.cursor.com/t/cursor-cloud-agent-skills/164400/11 "2026-07-19T01:22:32Z")
Following up after v3.11: still repro’ing on Cloud Agents in the Agents Window. User-level skills are on the VM under `~/.cursor/skills` (install via `.cursor/environment.json` works — files are present and the agent can load/run them when invoked in prose). But typing `/` still does not surface `/` for those user skills on follow-up turns (and often not reliably even when expected). So: skills work if you say “use the ship skill”; slash autocomplete for user skills still doesn’t. Happy to share Cursor version / OS if useful. ---

@nerumo Are you also installing skills into the home directory of a Cloud Agent VM, or are these skills sitting in your project’s `.cursor/skills` directory? ---

Thanks! I was able to reproduce this on _v3.13_ (coming imminently), but only when the first turn of the cloud agent hasn’t finished yet. Once it has, I have access to the full Skills menu. It would be better if the menu was always hydrated, and I’ll file an issue for that! Would be great to know if this matches what you’re seeing once you’re on 3.13. ---

Now it’s working universally. Good job, thank you. ---

Hey @nerumo, One last follow-up on the remaining edge here: project skills briefly disappearing from the slash menu while a cloud agent’s first message is still processing. A fix for that is coming in Cursor 3.17 (coming soon). Please give it another try once you’re on that version!
