# Cursor Skills

Cursor is an AI-powered code editor and development environment that combines intelligent coding assistance with enterprise-grade features and workflow automation. It extends beyond basic AI code completion to provide comprehensive development tooling including automated code review, PR analysis, and deep integration capabilities.

The platform emphasizes enterprise readiness with features like MDM system integration, secure authentication, and advanced context management through its Memories system. It positions itself as a full-featured development environment rather than just an AI coding assistant, with particular strength in automation and team collaboration workflows.

## Core Capabilities

This skill provides specialized knowledge and workflows for:

- Automated code review and bug detection
- i18n key translation automation
- Pull request analysis and management
- Context-aware code assistance
- Enterprise development workflows
- Team collaboration and code sharing
- Automated development work delegation

Overview

This skill captures practical knowledge and workflows for using Cursor, an AI-powered code editor and development environment focused on automation, enterprise readiness, and team collaboration. It highlights capabilities like automated code review, PR analysis, i18n automation, and context management through Memories. The content helps engineers and teams apply Cursor features effectively across development and CI/CD workflows.

How this skill works

The skill explains what Cursor inspects and automates: it analyzes code and pull requests, surfaces bugs and suggestions, and automates repetitive tasks like translations and review checks. It also covers integration points—authentication, GitHub/CI integration, MDM deployment, and how the Memories system preserves project context. Practical patterns and configuration guidance enable reliable automation and collaboration.

When to use it

  • When you want automated code review and PR analysis in your CI pipeline
  • When implementing i18n key translation automation across a codebase
  • When onboarding enterprise security, MDM, and authentication in a developer IDE
  • When you need to preserve project context across sessions using Memories
  • When building delegated automation for routine developer tasks and workflows

Best practices

  • Prefer browser-based authentication for secure, repeatable sign-in flows
  • Keep project context up to date using the Memories system to reduce context loss
  • Configure automated code review rules and integrate them into PR workflows
  • Enforce enterprise network and security settings early in project setup
  • Automate repetitive tasks (translations, linting, triage) to free developer time

Example use cases

  • Automatically run AI-driven code reviews on every PR and surface fix suggestions to reviewers
  • Translate and sync i18n keys across multiple languages as part of release automation
  • Use Memories to retain debugging context between sessions for long-running projects
  • Integrate Cursor checks into GitHub Actions to block merges on critical issues
  • Deploy Cursor with MDM and SSO to enforce enterprise access policies across the team

FAQ

How do I avoid losing context between sessions?

Persist and update project state in the Memories system and load relevant context at session start to keep AI assistance consistent.

What integrations are common with Cursor?

Common integrations include GitHub, CI/CD (GitHub Actions), issue trackers like Linear, and enterprise MDM/SSO providers.
