Importing Skills
importing-skills
The second bundled meta-skill, and the one used to migrate this very repo. It knows where every agent hides its rules - .cursorrules, .cursor/rules/*.mdc, .clinerules, .windsurfrules, copilot-instructions.md, AGENTS.md sections, or native skills sitting in one agent's folder - and converts each coherent capability into a canonical .skills/<name>/SKILL.md, surfacing implicit dependencies along the way.
What it does
- Finds existing rules across every agent's native locations
- Splits mixed rule files into one skill per coherent capability
- Surfaces implicit env and CLI dependencies into frontmatter
- Reconciles the original files and relinks via dot-skills link
How it flows
- 01Read the source rule or skill files in full
- 02Identify distinct capabilities and name each one
- 03Write .skills/<name>/SKILL.md with proper frontmatter
- 04Clean up or note the legacy files, then run npx dot-skills link
Example prompt
“Migrate my .cursorrules into dot-skills format.”
