# Skillbase sync

Install chosen Skillbase skills as local Cursor Agent Skills.

## Steps

1. Ensure the Skillbase MCP server is connected (`whoami` should succeed).
2. `list_skills` — show name, slug, summary; ask which to install if unclear.
3. For each selected `skillId`, call `prepare_install`.
4. Write `markdown` using `absoluteHint` / `relativePath` (create parent folders as needed).
5. Summarize what was installed and the paths written.

## Scope

- **project** (default): `.cursor/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` — shared with the repo
- **user**: write to `~/.cursor/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` (expand `~` to the home
  directory) — personal, all projects

## Do not

- Install every skill unless the user explicitly asks for a full sync
- Overwrite an existing local skill without confirming when contents differ
- Use Sync Mac destinations here — this path is Cursor skill folders only
