Cursor has no admin console for skills. This is one.

Cursor reads skills from disk and gives you no way to say which people should have which. That is fine for one person and it stops working somewhere around the fifth.

The CLI writes into .agents/skills — the folder Cursor reads, and the same one Codex and Gemini CLI read, so a person with all three gets each skill once rather than three times. Skills stay plain SKILL.md, so nothing about the files is Skill Belt specific.

The part Cursor cannot do on its own is entitlement. A group gets a set; a person belongs to groups; each install writes exactly that person's set and removes anything they are no longer entitled to. Contractors get the subset that does not touch production, and when the contract ends the next install cleans up.

If half your team is in Cursor and half is in Claude Code, this is the case the whole product exists for. One catalog, one set of groups, one audit log, and neither half has to change tools.

Known limits

What Cursor does not give us.

Stated up front, because you will find these out on day two anyway.

  • No marketplace protocol, so there is no in-app browse. Installing is a command.
  • Skills are files on disk, so removal has to be driven from the machine — re-running install does it.
  • MCP servers and hooks reach Claude Code today. Cursor gets the skills; the CLI tells you what it skipped.

FAQ

Cursor, specifically.

Does this need a Cursor Business plan?

No. Skill Belt writes files the Cursor you already run reads, so any plan works.

Project skills or user skills?

Either. The first install asks whether skills are for you in every project (~/.agents/skills) or just this repository (.agents/skills), and remembers the answer. --scope changes it.

The price is on the page. That is the whole idea.

$99 a month for up to 50 people, cancelled from the billing page. If you've got a question first, ask it — a person answers.
