Use with Cursor

Wire prompts and skills into Cursor and other agents

Use with Cursor

Cursor doesn't read ~/.claude/ directly, but you can wire Noddle Deck content in through Cursor Rules — and the same pattern works for any agent that supports a rules / system-prompt file.

Cursor Rules

Cursor reads .cursor/rules/*.mdc files (project-scoped) or ~/.cursor/rules/*.mdc (global). Noddle Deck prompts and skills both render to markdown that Cursor accepts.

Sync pattern

Sync prompts into your project's rules folder:

bash
mkdir -p .cursor/rules
noddle-deck sync category developer --out .cursor/rules

Or symlink your installed packs:

bash
ln -s ~/.claude/skills/noddle-deck-developer .cursor/rules/noddle-deck-developer

Cursor picks them up on the next chat. The description field still drives auto-activation.

Paste as system prompt

For one-off use, open a prompt or skill in the web UI, copy its full template, and paste it into Cursor's Rules editor under Settings → Rules → User Rules. This is the simplest path if you only need one or two skills.

Other agents

Most modern agents support some form of "rules" or "system prompt" file. The flow is the same:

  1. Sync the markdown locally (noddle-deck sync or noddle-deck pack install).
  2. Point the agent's rules folder at the synced content (copy, symlink, or paste).

If your agent isn't covered here, the markdown is portable — any LLM can consume it.
