What it does

Check Agent Compatibility is an agent skill from cursor/plugins, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Run the full repository compatibility pass: scanner score, startup path, validation loop, and docs reliability.

Its SKILL.md is about 600 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Cursor plugin specification and official plugins.

Example prompts

  • “/check-agent-compatibility”

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Launch compatibility-scan-review to run the CLI and capture the raw repository score and main issues.
  2. Launch startup-review to verify whether the repo can actually be booted by an agent.
  3. Launch validation-review to check whether an agent can verify a small change without an unnecessarily heavy loop.
  4. Launch docs-reliability-review to see whether the documented setup and run paths reliably match reality.
  5. Use one subagent per task. Do not collapse these checks into one agent prompt.
  6. Compute an internal workflow score as the rounded average of
  7. Compute an Agent Compatibility Score as
  8. Synthesize the results into one final response.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ccb5507. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Check Agent Compatibility loads about 601 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 335 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~34
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~601

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 335 words (~601 tokens).
