Cursor, Aider, Windsurf & 8 More AI Coding Tools	Install Claude Code skills and agent plugins in Cursor, Aider, Kilo Code, Windsurf, OpenCode, Augment, and Antigravity. One-command conversion for 11 AI coding agents.

Multi-Tool Integrations

All 156 skills in this repository can be converted to work natively with 7 AI coding tools beyond Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI. The conversion preserves skill instructions, workflows, and supporting files — adapting only the format each tool expects.

Quick Start

1. Convert

git clone https://github.com/alirezarezvani/claude-skills.git
cd claude-skills

# Convert all skills for all tools (~15 seconds)
./scripts/convert.sh --tool all

# Or convert for a specific tool only
./scripts/convert.sh --tool cursor

2. Install

# Install into your project directory
./scripts/install.sh --tool cursor --target /path/to/project

# Or install globally (Antigravity)
./scripts/install.sh --tool antigravity

# Skip confirmation prompts
./scripts/install.sh --tool aider --target . --force

3. Verify

Each tool section below includes a verification step to confirm skills are loaded.

!!! tip "Regenerate after updates" When you pull new skills from the repository, re-run ./scripts/convert.sh and ./scripts/install.sh to update your local installation.

---

How Conversion Works

The converter reads each skill's SKILL.md frontmatter (name and description) and markdown body, then outputs the format each tool expects:

Source	Target	What Changes
YAML frontmatter	Tool-specific frontmatter	Field names/values adapted per tool
Markdown body	Passed through	Instructions preserved as-is
scripts/ dir	Copied (where supported)	Antigravity, Windsurf, OpenCode
references/ dir	Copied (where supported)	Antigravity, Windsurf, OpenCode
templates/ dir	Copied (where supported)	Antigravity, Windsurf, OpenCode

Tools that use flat files (Cursor, Aider, Kilo Code, Augment) get the SKILL.md body only — supporting directories are not copied since those tools don't support subdirectories per rule.

---

Cursor

Cursor uses .mdc rule files in .cursor/rules/ with frontmatter for description, glob patterns, and auto-apply settings.

Format

Each skill becomes a single .mdc file:

---
description: "What this skill does and when to activate it"
globs:
alwaysApply: false
---

# Skill instructions here...

• alwaysApply: false — skills are available on-demand, not always loaded
• globs: — empty by default; add file patterns to auto-activate for specific files (e.g., *.test.ts)

Install

=== "Script"

```bash
./scripts/convert.sh --tool cursor
./scripts/install.sh --tool cursor --target /path/to/project
```

=== "Manual"

```bash
mkdir -p /path/to/project/.cursor/rules
cp integrations/cursor/rules/*.mdc /path/to/project/.cursor/rules/
```

Verify

find .cursor/rules -name "*.mdc" | wc -l
# Expected: 156

Open the Cursor rules panel to see all available skills listed.

Customization

After installation, you can:

• Set alwaysApply: true on skills you want active in every conversation
• Add globs: "*.py" to auto-activate Python-related skills for .py files
• Remove skills you don't need to keep your rules panel clean

---

Aider

Aider reads a CONVENTIONS.md file from your project root. All skills are concatenated into this single file with section headers.

Format

# Claude Skills — Aider Conventions
> Auto-generated from claude-skills. Do not edit manually.
> Generated: 2026-03-11

---

## copywriting
> When the user wants to write, rewrite, or improve marketing copy...

# Copywriting

You are an expert conversion copywriter...

---

## senior-architect
> Deep expertise in system architecture...

# Senior Architect
...

Install

=== "Script"

```bash
./scripts/convert.sh --tool aider
./scripts/install.sh --tool aider --target /path/to/project
```

=== "Manual"

```bash
cp integrations/aider/CONVENTIONS.md /path/to/project/
```

Usage

# Aider automatically reads CONVENTIONS.md from the project root
aider

# Or explicitly point to it
aider --read CONVENTIONS.md

Verify

wc -l CONVENTIONS.md
# Expected: ~41,000 lines (all 156 skills)

grep -c "^## " CONVENTIONS.md
# Expected: 156 (one section per skill)

!!! note "Large file" The combined CONVENTIONS.md is ~41K lines. Aider handles this well, but if you prefer a smaller file, you can edit it to keep only the skills relevant to your project.

---

Kilo Code

Kilo Code reads plain markdown rules from .kilocode/rules/. No special frontmatter required.

Format

Each skill becomes a clean markdown file:

# copywriting
> When the user wants to write, rewrite, or improve marketing copy...

# Copywriting

You are an expert conversion copywriter...

Install

=== "Script"

```bash
./scripts/convert.sh --tool kilocode
./scripts/install.sh --tool kilocode --target /path/to/project
```

=== "Manual"

```bash
mkdir -p /path/to/project/.kilocode/rules
cp integrations/kilocode/rules/*.md /path/to/project/.kilocode/rules/
```

Verify

find .kilocode/rules -name "*.md" | wc -l
# Expected: 156

Open Kilo Code's rules panel (click the ⚖ icon) to see all rules loaded.

Mode-Specific Rules

Kilo Code supports mode-specific rules. To assign skills to specific modes:

# Move architecture skills to "architect" mode
mkdir -p .kilocode/rules-architect/
mv .kilocode/rules/senior-architect.md .kilocode/rules-architect/
mv .kilocode/rules/database-designer.md .kilocode/rules-architect/

---

Windsurf

Windsurf uses the same SKILL.md format as Claude Code — skills convert with minimal changes.

Format

Each skill becomes a directory with SKILL.md plus optional supporting files:

.windsurf/skills/copywriting/
├── SKILL.md           # Instructions with name/description frontmatter
├── scripts/           # Python tools (if present in source)
├── references/        # Domain knowledge (if present)
└── templates/         # Code templates (if present)

---
name: "copywriting"
description: "When the user wants to write, rewrite, or improve marketing copy..."
---

# Copywriting
...

Install

=== "Script"

```bash
./scripts/convert.sh --tool windsurf
./scripts/install.sh --tool windsurf --target /path/to/project
```

=== "Manual"

```bash
cp -R integrations/windsurf/skills/* /path/to/project/.windsurf/skills/
```

Verify

find .windsurf/skills -name "SKILL.md" | wc -l
# Expected: 156

Skills appear automatically in Windsurf's skill list. You can also invoke them with @skill-name.

Progressive Disclosure

Windsurf uses progressive disclosure — only the skill name and description are shown by default. The full SKILL.md content loads only when Windsurf decides the skill is relevant to your request, keeping your context window lean.

---

OpenCode

OpenCode supports skills in .opencode/skills/ with SKILL.md files. It also reads Claude Code's .claude/skills/ as a fallback.

Format

Each skill becomes a directory with SKILL.md:

---
name: "copywriting"
description: "When the user wants to write, rewrite, or improve marketing copy..."
compatibility: opencode
---

# Copywriting
...

The compatibility: opencode field is added to help OpenCode identify these as native skills.

Install

=== "Script"

```bash
./scripts/convert.sh --tool opencode
./scripts/install.sh --tool opencode --target /path/to/project
```

=== "Manual"

```bash
cp -R integrations/opencode/skills/* /path/to/project/.opencode/skills/
```

=== "Global"

```bash
# Install globally for all projects
cp -R integrations/opencode/skills/* ~/.config/opencode/skills/
```

Verify

find .opencode/skills -name "SKILL.md" | wc -l
# Expected: 156

Claude Code Compatibility

OpenCode also reads .claude/skills/ directories. If you already have skills installed for Claude Code, OpenCode will discover them automatically — no conversion needed.

To disable this fallback:

export OPENCODE_DISABLE_CLAUDE_CODE_SKILLS=1

---

Augment

Augment reads rule files from .augment/rules/ with frontmatter specifying activation type.

Format

Each skill becomes a markdown rule file:

---
type: auto
description: "When the user wants to write, rewrite, or improve marketing copy..."
---

# Copywriting
...

• type: auto — Augment automatically activates the rule when it matches your request
• Other types: always (always loaded), manual (user-invoked only)

Install

=== "Script"

```bash
./scripts/convert.sh --tool augment
./scripts/install.sh --tool augment --target /path/to/project
```

=== "Manual"

```bash
mkdir -p /path/to/project/.augment/rules
cp integrations/augment/rules/*.md /path/to/project/.augment/rules/
```

Verify

find .augment/rules -name "*.md" | wc -l
# Expected: 156

Customization

Change type: auto to type: always for skills you want loaded in every conversation:

# Make coding standards always active
sed -i 's/type: auto/type: always/' .augment/rules/senior-architect.md

---

Antigravity

Antigravity (Google) uses SKILL.md files in ~/.gemini/antigravity/skills/ with additional metadata fields.

Format

---
name: "copywriting"
description: "When the user wants to write, rewrite, or improve marketing copy..."
risk: low
source: community
date_added: '2026-03-11'
---

# Copywriting
...

Additional fields:

• risk: low — all skills are instruction-only, no dangerous operations
• source: community — identifies these as community-contributed skills
• date_added — conversion date for tracking freshness

Install

=== "Script"

```bash
./scripts/convert.sh --tool antigravity
./scripts/install.sh --tool antigravity
# Installs to ~/.gemini/antigravity/skills/ by default
```

=== "Manual"

```bash
cp -R integrations/antigravity/* ~/.gemini/antigravity/skills/
```

Verify

find ~/.gemini/antigravity/skills -name "SKILL.md" | wc -l
# Expected: 156

Troubleshooting

??? question "I get 'No skills found' when running convert.sh" Make sure you're running the script from the repository root where the skill directories are located.

??? question "Some skills show garbled descriptions" This can happen with skills using complex YAML multi-line descriptions. Re-run convert.sh — the parser handles folded (>) and literal (|) YAML scalars.

??? question "Can I use skills from multiple tools at once?" Yes! You can install skills for Cursor and Windsurf in the same project — they use different directories and won't conflict.

??? question "How do I update when new skills are added?" bash git pull origin main ./scripts/convert.sh --tool all ./scripts/install.sh --tool <your-tool> --target . --force

??? question "Can I convert only specific skills?" Not yet via CLI flags, but you can run convert.sh and then copy only the skills you want from integrations/<tool>/.

??? question "Do supporting files (scripts, references) work in all tools?" Only tools that support subdirectories per skill (Antigravity, Windsurf, OpenCode) get the full bundle. Flat-file tools (Cursor, Aider, Kilo Code, Augment) get the SKILL.md content only.
