Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
node --versiongolang-patternsExecute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
epx add affaan-m/everything-claude-code --skill golang-patternsFetches golang-patterns from affaan-m/everything-claude-code and configures it for Cursor.
The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:
