Lists all available Cursor skills with their names and descriptions.
AI agents call cursor_list_skills to retrieve information from Clodbridge without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns metadata about available skills without modifying, executing, or deleting any data. It is a straightforward read operation, and the blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent might learn about available skills but cannot invoke them or cause harm through listing alone.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'cursor_list_skills' and description 'Lists all available Cursor skills with their names and descriptions' indicate a pure retrieval operation with no side effects.
