Cursor Agent Skills

A collection of reusable Cursor agent skills.

Skills

JIRA Ticket Creation

Path: jira-tickets/SKILL.md

Create JIRA tickets at any hierarchy level (Epic, Story, Task, Sub-task, Bug) via the GitKraken MCP integration. The skill infers as much as possible from conversation context and only asks for what it can't determine.

Requirements:

• GitLens extension with a connected JIRA integration
• GitKraken MCP server enabled in Cursor

Usage:

1. Copy jira-tickets/SKILL.md into your project's .cursor/skills/jira-tickets/ directory
2. Ask the agent to create a JIRA ticket — it will pick up the skill automatically

GitHub Issue Creation

Path: github-issues/SKILL.md

Create GitHub issues on any repo from a context document or conversation. The skill parses raw input, improves titles and descriptions, infers labels, presents a review table for approval, and then creates the issues.

Requirements:

• GitLens extension with a connected GitHub integration
• GitKraken MCP server enabled in Cursor

Usage:

1. Copy github-issues/SKILL.md into your project's .cursor/skills/github-issues/ directory
2. Provide a context doc or describe the issues you want to create
3. The agent will parse, improve, and present them for review before creating

Weekly Status Report

Path: weekly-report/SKILL.md

Generate a weekly status report by aggregating Git commits, JIRA tickets, GitHub issues, and pull requests. Categorises work into completed, in-progress, and blockers, then formats as markdown, Slack-ready, or email.

Requirements:

• GitLens extension with connected JIRA and/or GitHub integrations
• GitKraken MCP server enabled in Cursor

Usage:

1. Copy weekly-report/SKILL.md into your project's .cursor/skills/weekly-report/ directory
2. Ask the agent for a weekly status report or standup summary

ADR Writer

Path: adr-writer/SKILL.md

Capture architecture decisions as ADRs (Architecture Decision Records) using the standard Nygard template. Extracts context, decision, and alternatives from conversation, auto-numbers the file, and writes it to the project.

Requirements:

• No external integrations required — works with the filesystem only

Usage:

1. Copy adr-writer/SKILL.md into your project's .cursor/skills/adr-writer/ directory
2. Discuss a technical decision in conversation, then ask the agent to record it as an ADR

RFC / Proposal Drafter

Path: rfc-drafter/SKILL.md

Draft RFCs and technical proposals from conversation context. Structures ideas into a formal document with summary, motivation, proposal, alternatives, and open questions. Supports multiple output formats and depth levels.

Requirements:

• No external integrations required — works with the filesystem only

Usage:

1. Copy rfc-drafter/SKILL.md into your project's .cursor/skills/rfc-drafter/ directory
2. Discuss a technical idea in conversation, then ask the agent to draft an RFC or proposal
