Overall Assessment

This skill provides a high-level outline but lacks the concrete, executable guidance needed for actionability. It claims to cover multiple platforms but provides no platform-specific commands or code. The content reads more like a table of contents than an actionable skill.

Suggestions

Add concrete installation commands for each platform (e.g., `brew install cursor` for macOS, specific Linux package commands, Windows installer steps)
Include a verification step to confirm successful installation (e.g., `cursor --version` or checking the application launches)
Provide specific OAuth troubleshooting steps inline rather than deferring entirely to errors.md
Remove obvious prerequisites (internet connection, supported OS) that don't add value

Dimension	Score	Reasoning
Conciseness	2/3	The content is reasonably efficient but includes some unnecessary sections like 'Prerequisites' listing obvious requirements (internet connection, supported OS) and 'Output' describing expected results that Claude would understand implicitly.
Actionability	1/3	Instructions are vague and lack concrete commands. 'Download from cursor.com or package manager' provides no specific commands. No actual installation commands for any platform, no code examples, nothing copy-paste ready.
Workflow Clarity	2/3	Steps are listed in sequence but lack specificity and validation checkpoints. No verification that installation succeeded, no troubleshooting for OAuth failures, no platform-specific branching despite claiming to cover macOS, Linux, and Windows.
Progressive Disclosure	2/3	References to external files (errors.md, examples.md) are present but the main content is too thin - it defers critical details to other files without providing enough actionable content in the skill itself. The overview promises platform-specific coverage that isn't delivered.

Overall Assessment

This is a reasonably well-constructed skill description with strong trigger term coverage and clear distinctiveness. The main weakness is that the 'what' portion could be more specific about the actual configuration steps or authentication methods involved. The description is functional but could benefit from slightly more detail about capabilities.

Suggestions

Expand the capability description to include specific actions like 'downloads installer, configures license keys, sets up SSO authentication' to improve specificity
The phrase 'Use when working with cursor install auth functionality' is somewhat redundant with the trigger list - consider making the 'when' clause more contextual (e.g., 'Use when setting up a new Cursor IDE installation or troubleshooting authentication issues')

Dimension	Score	Reasoning
Specificity	2/3	Names the domain (Cursor IDE) and two actions (install, configure authentication), but lacks comprehensive detail about what configuration entails or what specific authentication steps are involved.
Completeness	3/3	Clearly answers both what ('Install Cursor IDE and configure authentication') and when ('Use when working with cursor install auth functionality') with explicit trigger phrases listed.
Trigger Term Quality	3/3	Good coverage of natural terms users would say: 'install cursor', 'setup cursor', 'cursor authentication', 'cursor login', 'cursor license', plus shorter variations like 'cursor auth'. These are terms users would naturally use.
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	3/3	Very specific niche targeting Cursor IDE installation and authentication specifically. The trigger terms are distinct and unlikely to conflict with other skills due to the specific product name and authentication focus.
