plugins

Use when the user runs /add-dictation or wants speech turned into text with Grok speech-to-text: a mic button that dictates into the composer, live captions, or transcribing recorded audio (files, uploads, URLs) with word timestamps, diarization, subtitles, meeting notes. STT, transcribe, transcription. For a voice agent that talks back use /add-voice.

Use when the user runs /add-read-aloud or wants the app to speak text with Grok text-to-speech: read-aloud button on assistant replies, auto-speak, TTS, voice output, narration, IVR prompts, speech tags, voice_id. For a two-way voice agent use /add-voice. For speech-to-text use /add-dictation.

Use when the user runs /add-voice, types Voice Mode, or asks to add Grok realtime voice to an app, including replacing an STT-LLM-TTS cascade or OpenAI Realtime. Wire speech-to-speech, safe auth, and app mic. Composer: waveform button, mic icon reserved for dictation. For mic-to-text only use /add-dictation; to speak text replies use /add-read-aloud. To add debug logging and fix from logs use /debug-voice.

Advisor mode. Consult a stronger (or different) model at key checkpoints: before major decisions, when stuck on an error, and before declaring a task done. Use when the user types /advisor, asks to turn the advisor on or off, picks an advisor model, or explicitly asks for a second opinion from a stronger or different model. Never enable it on your own.

Sketch types, signatures, and module structure before code, then stay in the loop while implementation fills in. Use for /architect, 'architect this', 'design this', or non-trivial work where jumping to code would lock in the wrong shape.

Spawn N parallel candidates at the same task, pick a base, graft the strongest parts of the losers into it. Use for /arena, 'arena this', 'throw it in the arena', or when one attempt at a non-trivial artifact would lock in the wrong shape.

Use for "automate me", "create/update/refresh my -mode skill", "turn/capture my preferences or working style into a skill", or wanting agents to follow how the user works. Drafts or revises a personal -mode skill via create-skill + unslop, optionally pulling fresh evidence from recent transcripts.

Find what a change could break somewhere else before it ships, beyond the diff, and prove the one fact it's safe because of by running real code instead of writing it up. Use for 'blast radius of X', 'what could this break', or reviewing a small diff you don't trust.

Restate the last message in plain human language, with no jargon.

Use for "/build-figma", a figma.com/design URL with node-id, or "implement this Figma" into a web, desktop, or shared UI. Orchestrates Figma MCP intake, maps nodes to the repo's own design system, then a verify-this visual judge. Do not paste Figma Tailwind.

Cancel an active Ralph Loop. Use when the user wants to stop, cancel, or abort a running ralph loop.

Run compile and type-check commands and report failures

Designs or reviews CLIs so coding agents can run them reliably: non-interactive flags, layered --help with examples, stdin/pipelines, fast actionable errors, idempotency, dry-run, and predictable structure. Use when building a CLI, adding commands, writing --help, or when the user mentions agents, terminals, or automation-friendly CLIs.

Orchestrate continual learning by delegating transcript mining and AGENTS.md updates to `agents-memory-updater`.

Build or adapt a local harness to drive, inspect, and profile an interactive CLI or TUI without external services. Use for CLI UX checks, startup regressions, memory leaks, hangs, prompt flows, or terminal demos.

Build or adapt a local browser/CDP harness to drive and inspect a web, IDE, or Electron UI. Use for local UI verification, screenshots, accessibility snapshots, perf profiles, visual diffs, or reproducing UI bugs.

Build a personalized learning roadmap with milestones and practice checkpoints

Create a new Cursor plugin scaffold with a valid manifest, component directories, and marketplace wiring. Use when starting a new plugin or adding a plugin to a multi-plugin repository.

Generate a project-local verification skill that drives your app the way a user does — any language, framework, or platform. Use for /create-verification-skill, "make a control skill for this repo", or when a project has no scripted way to prove UI/CLI/service behavior.

Guide users building apps, scripts, CI pipelines, or automations on top of the Cursor TypeScript SDK (`@cursor/sdk`). Use this skill whenever the user mentions integrating, installing, or writing code against the Cursor SDK; whenever they say `Agent.create`, `Agent.prompt`, `Agent.resume`, `agent.send`, `run.stream`, `CursorAgentError`, or `@cursor/sdk`; whenever they ask to run Cursor agents programmatically from a script, CI/CD pipeline, GitHub Action, backend service, or any other code that isn't the Cursor IDE itself; and whenever they want to pick between local and cloud runtime, configure MCP servers for an SDK agent, or handle streaming, cancellation, or errors from an SDK agent. Also trigger when a user is wiring Cursor into an automation, writing a bot that runs Cursor, or porting REST `/v1/agents` calls to the SDK, even if they don't explicitly name the package. Use this eagerly rather than answering from memory; the SDK surface evolves and this skill plus its references are the source of truth for the external package.
