docs: Cursor works natively (correct multi-agent docs)#21
Merged
Conversation
Research confirms Cursor reads `.agents/skills/` as a project-level skill location AND `AGENTS.md` from the repo root, both with zero config. So Cursor needs no adapter — and must NOT get a `.cursor/skills` symlink, which would double-discover every skill alongside the natively-read `.agents/skills/`. - README: Cursor row -> "works natively, no config" (was "symlink + adapter pending"); note that `context: fork` isn't honored by Cursor today, so the review skills run in the main context there (review still happens). - AGENTS.md: group Pi + Cursor as native `.agents/skills/` readers; only Gemini CLI still needs a symlink adapter.

Follow-up to #20. Tackling Cursor — which turned out to need no adapter.
Finding
Cursor (2026) reads
.agents/skills/natively as a project-level skill location (recursively, auto-discovered, no registration) and readsAGENTS.mdfrom the repo root natively. So opening a clone of this repo in Cursor just works — zero config.Crucially, this means we must not add a
.cursor/skillssymlink: Cursor already reads.agents/skills/, so a symlink would double-discover every skill.The earlier README/AGENTS.md (from #20) wrongly listed Cursor as "symlink + adapter pending." This corrects that.
Changes (docs only)
context: forkisn't honored by Cursor today, so the two review skills run in the main context there (the review still happens, just not in a separate forked turn)..agents/skills/readers; only Gemini CLI still needs a symlink adapter.Verification
AGENTS.mdpresent at repo root (where Cursor reads it)..cursor/dir exists (no double-discovery).name== parent folder).Caveat carried forward
context: forkisn't in Cursor's documented frontmatter; the reviewers degrade gracefully to inline. Cursor MCP wiring for the optional web preview remains a follow-up (PDF pipeline needs no MCP).🤖 Generated with Claude Code
