Skills

Skills are versioned markdown (SKILL.md) that teach your coding agent how we actually work at Abridge — how to scaffold a service, run the Watchdog suite, triage Terraform drift, prep a standup, and more. Where MCP servers give your agent tools, skills give it know-how.

This guide lists the recommended skills and gives you a one-line install.

Install everything

Skills live in ~/.cursor/skills/ and are auto-discovered by Cursor. Install the shared Abridge library with:

curl -fsSL https://cloud.abridge.services/install-skills.sh | bash

Reload Cursor and your agent picks them up automatically — no config. To refresh later, re-run with --update. See Manual setup for the full script and how to author your own.

Recommended skills

Skill	What it does
scaffold-service	Generate a new content/services/<slug>/ folder for this portal
watchdog-holodeck-test	Run the Watchdog suite against a Holodeck preview slot
drift-remediation	Triage Atmos/Terraform drift and draft a plan-only PR
argocd-debug	Triage ArgoCD sync, health, and rendered-manifest drift
pr-review-buddy	Structured PR review — correctness, security, tests
standup-context	Aggregate GitHub/Linear/Slack into a standup update

The installer pulls the current set from the skills repo, so the list stays in sync as new skills land.

Next steps

• Pair these with the MCP servers guide so your agent has both the tools and the know-how.
