Cursor IDE
Support Claude Skills
Please stop constantly modifying the UI. A bunch of programmers don’t care what you look like; as long as it’s similar to VSCode, that’s fine. Focus on developing good features instead. Otherwise, you’ll lose your competitiveness in the future. Claude Code has been concentrating on getting its work done.

Cursor is now my most frequently used AI programming tool. I hope to integrate Claude Skills functionality into Cursor, which would greatly improve my development efficiency and help me better handle some routine workflow tasks. It’s like putting AI workflows into Cursor. I’ve found many useful skills on this website, and I hope to be able to use them in Cursor.
I’m sure that they are on it, it is very obvious that
1.skills are going to make it faster for certain repeatable tasks
2.it saves tokens when it reuses instead of rewriting it everytime
3.it makes workflows more stable, and users can expect stable outcome making the agent more trust worthy
I’m pretty sure that they are 75% done with this update by now 
Isn’t this just their lack of innovation beyond UI/UX—so they can only copy features?
Hey, I was in the same boat, so made a universal skills system (that is cross compatible with Claude skills ecosystem) called OpenSkills
It’s been really popular and had great feedback so far
Please try it out and let me know what you think!
I’ll be happy to see Claude’s skills integrated into the cursor, or a similar capability that allows us to distill knowledge and how-abouts to agents
just tried this, work pretty well.

# Sync Cursor Framework
Copy and overwrite the `agents` and `skills` directories from the `.claude` meta-framework source to `.cursor/{agents,skills}` in the current working directory. Then generate `AGENTS.md` with an overview of all available skills parsed from their SKILL.md frontmatter.
```bash
# Create target directories and sync
mkdir -p .cursor/agents .cursor/skills
cp -R ~/.claude/agents/* .cursor/agents/
cp -R ~/.claude/skills/* .cursor/skills/
# Generate AGENTS.md from SKILL.md frontmatter
echo "# Available Skills" > AGENTS.md
echo "" >> AGENTS.md
echo "This file is auto-generated by \`/sync-cursor-framework\`. Do not edit manually." >> AGENTS.md
echo "" >> AGENTS.md
echo "| Skill | Description | Location |" >> AGENTS.md
echo "|-------|-------------|----------|" >> AGENTS.md
for skill_file in .cursor/skills/*/SKILL.md; do
if [ -f "$skill_file" ]; then
skill_dir=$(dirname "$skill_file" | sed 's|.cursor/skills/||')
name=$(grep "^name:" "$skill_file" | head -1 | sed 's/name:[[:space:]]*//')
desc=$(grep "^description:" "$skill_file" | head -1 | sed 's/description:[[:space:]]*//')
echo "| **$name** | $desc | \`.cursor/skills/$skill_dir/SKILL.md\` |" >> AGENTS.md
fi
done
echo "" >> AGENTS.md
echo "## Usage" >> AGENTS.md
echo "" >> AGENTS.md
echo "Load a skill: \`Load the **[skill-name]** skill.\`" >> AGENTS.md
```
Hi,I develop this method to help agents use skills by MCP,maybe it can help you : GitHub - nemori-ai/agent_skills: Enable any AI Agent to gain Skills capability with one click, driving Agent self-evolution
Four tabs to explore and only 8 Replies in the thread.
what is the exactly difference between skills and cursor rules? Do they solve the same problem?
