What it does

Correct is an agent skill from cursor/plugins, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Find the mistakes agents keep repeating in this repo and make each one impossible. Try architecture first, then types, then a lint whose error names the fix, then a test, and write docs last. Prove each check fails on a real past mistake. Repeat this each time the operator corrects you. Use for /correct.

Its SKILL.md is about 610 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.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Linting and formatting

Example prompts

  • “/correct”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Eliminate it with architecture. Give each piece of state one owner and each task one supported way. Hide internals so the wrong import…
  2. Enforce it with types so the bad state can't be written. If bad code still compiles, add a lint or CI check whose error names the file…
  3. Test the behavior. Fix or delete any test that would still pass if every function it calls returned nothing.
  4. Write docs or agent rules last, only for judgment calls. Nothing fails when an agent skips them.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9f451cf. 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

Correct loads about 612 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 363 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~78
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~612

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 363 words (~612 tokens).

“The operator keeps correcting agents in this repo for the same mistakes. Change the repo so the next agent can't make them.”
