Description
A comprehensive skill for using the Cursor CLI agent for various software engineering tasks (updated for 2026 features, includes tmux automation guide).
Usage Guidance
Review this skill carefully before installing. Prefer a package-managed or verified Cursor CLI installer instead of `curl | bash`, do not automate workspace trust approval for unreviewed repositories, and avoid `--force` unless you are working in a controlled branch or sandbox with review and rollback available.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: cursor-agent
Version: 2.1.0
The skill is classified as suspicious due to high-risk installation methods and extensive shell automation instructions. The `SKILL.md` file instructs the OpenClaw agent to execute `curl https://cursor.com/install -fsS | bash` for installation, which is a direct execution of remote code and a significant supply chain risk. Furthermore, the skill provides detailed `tmux` automation instructions, including executing `sudo apt install tmux` and using `tmux send-keys` to bypass confirmation prompts (e.g., `tmux send-keys -t cursor "a"` to 'Trust workspace'), which, while explained as necessary for the tool's operation, represents risky capabilities and a form of prompt injection against the Cursor CLI itself, instructing the agent to perform actions without explicit user confirmation for that specific step.
Capability Assessment
Credentials
The examples include `--force` auto-application, CI use, API-key authentication, and agent execution inside user workspaces; these are purpose-aligned but need stronger warnings and scoping controls.
Install Mechanism
Both SKILL.md and README.md recommend `curl https://cursor.com/install -fsS | bash`, which executes a mutable remote installer without a verification or inspection step.
Instruction Scope
The tmux automation sends a trust-acceptance keystroke automatically, and the skill also notes that repository rule files and MCP configuration may be loaded, creating under-scoped trust expansion for automated runs.
Persistence & Privilege
The artifacts do not contain an embedded persistent payload, but they document PATH modification, CLI installation/update, sudo package installation for tmux, and session deletion via tmux.
Purpose & Capability
The skill's stated purpose is to document Cursor CLI installation, authentication, model selection, automation, MCP use, and engineering workflows; these capabilities fit that purpose.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install cursor-agent - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/cursor-agent - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
