Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
node --versionpdf-designExecute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
Fetches pdf-design from jamditis/claude-skills-journalism and configures it for Cursor.
The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
Restart Cursor to activate pdf-design. Access via /pdf-design in your agent's command palette.
We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.
Skills execute code in your environment. Always review source, verify the publisher, and test in isolation before production.

pdf-design is among the better-maintained entries we tried; worth keeping pinned for repeat workflows.
I recommend pdf-design for anyone iterating fast on agent tooling; clear intent and a small, reviewable surface area.
Useful defaults in pdf-design — fewer surprises than typical one-off scripts, and it plays nicely with `npx skills` flows.
