Create Local Skill

Create a project-local skill that works in both Claude Code and Cursor. The canonical location is .agents/skills/, with a symlink from .claude/commands so Claude Code picks it up.

Workflow

Step 1: Determine Skill Name

Ask the user what the skill should do if not already clear. Derive a kebab-case name from the task (e.g., sync-providers, deploy-staging).

Step 2: Create the Skill Directory

mkdir -p .agents/skills/<skill-name>

Step 3: Write the SKILL.md

Create .agents/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md following the create-skill skill guidelines. Read its references as needed for structure, best practices, and examples.

Step 4: Set Up the Symlink

If .claude/commands does not exist or is not already a symlink to .agents/skills:

mkdir -p .claude
ln -s ../.agents/skills .claude/commands

If .claude/commands already exists as a regular directory with other content, warn the user and ask how to proceed rather than overwriting.

Step 5: Verify

ls -la .claude/commands/              # should show symlink → ../.agents/skills
ls .claude/commands/<skill-name>/     # should list SKILL.md

Step 6: Git

Check .gitignore — ensure neither .agents/ nor .claude/ is ignored. Both should be committed so the skill is shared with collaborators.

Notes

  • The symlink uses a relative path (../.agents/skills) so it works regardless of where the repo is cloned.
  • Additional resources (scripts, references, assets) go inside the skill subdirectory — they are accessible from both tools via the symlink.
