Create Skill Augmentation (Agents + Symlink)

Required reference

  • Read ~/.cursor/skills-cursor/create-skill/SKILL.md and follow its structure.

Storage rule

  • Always create new skills under .agents/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md.
  • Do not create skills in .cursor/skills directly.

Symlink rule

  • Ensure .cursor/skills is a symlink to .agents/skills.
  • If .cursor/skills exists and is not a symlink, move it aside before linking.
  • If .cursor/skills is a symlink to the wrong location, replace it.

Use:

if [ -e ".cursor/skills" ] && [ ! -L ".cursor/skills" ]; then
  mv ".cursor/skills" ".cursor/skills.bak"
fi
if [ -L ".cursor/skills" ] && [ "$(readlink ".cursor/skills")" != "../.agents/skills" ]; then
  rm ".cursor/skills"
fi
if [ ! -L ".cursor/skills" ]; then
  ln -s "../.agents/skills" ".cursor/skills"
fi

Output

  • Report the created skill path and confirm the symlink status.
