Awesome Cursor Skills [](https://awesome.re)

A curated list of awesome [skills](https://docs.cursor.com/agent/skills) for [Cursor](https://cursor.com), the AI code editor.

Skills are reusable `SKILL.md` instruction files that teach the AI agent how to perform specific tasks — from setting up analytics to scaffolding entire projects. In cursor, they live in `.cursor/skills/` (personal) or project directories and are automatically discovered by the agent.

• `saving-workspace-context` - Automatically persist research, decisions, and learnings to workspace files so knowledge survives across conversations.

• `verifying-in-browser` - Start the dev server, open the app side-by-s
