How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
1 rule. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈1
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 136
If CI fails 3 times in a row:
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Workflow Guide Skill
A skill providing guidance on the Cursor ↔ Claude Code 2-agent workflow.
Trigger Phrases
This skill is invoked by the following phrases:

Overview
This skill explains the role assignment and collaboration method between Cursor (PM) and Claude Code (Worker).
2-Agent Workflow
Role Assignment
| Agent | Role | Responsibilities |
| Cursor | PM (Project Manager) | Task assignment, review, production deploy decisions |
| Claude Code | Worker | Implementation, testing, CI fixes, staging deploy |

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What if Cursor is not available?
A: Even when working alone, task management with Plans.md is recommended. Perform production deploys manually and carefully.
Q: What if a task is unclear?
A: Request clarification from Cursor, or use /sync-status to organize the current state.
Q: What if CI keeps failing?
A: Do not auto-fix more than 3 times; escalate to Cursor.
