Install PLG Skills
Installs all 27 Product-Led Growth skills from the SkeneTechnologies/plg-skills repository into Cursor.
Quick Start
When the user wants to install PLG skills:
- Determine installation location (personal vs project)
- Clone the repository
- Copy all skills from
skills/ directory to target location
- Verify installation
Installation Workflow
Step 1: Determine Target Location
Ask the user or infer from context:
- Personal (
~/.cursor/skills/): Available across all projects
- Project (
.cursor/skills/): Shared with repository users
Default to project location if working in a project directory.
Step 2: Clone Repository
Clone to a temporary location:
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/SkeneTechnologies/plg-skills.git plg-skills-temp
Or use a project-specific temp directory:
cd /path/to/project
git clone https://github.com/SkeneTechnologies/plg-skills.git .temp-plg-skills
Step 3: Copy Skills
For project installation:
mkdir -p .cursor/skills
cp -r .temp-plg-skills/skills/* .cursor/skills/
For personal installation:
mkdir -p ~/.cursor/skills
cp -r /tmp/plg-skills-temp/skills/* ~/.cursor/skills/
Step 4: Cleanup
Remove temporary clone:
rm -rf .temp-plg-skills
rm -rf /tmp/plg-skills-temp
Step 5: Verify Installation
List installed skills:
ls -la .cursor/skills/
ls -la ~/.cursor/skills/
Expected: 27 skill directories, each containing a SKILL.md file.

Alternative Installation Methods
If the user prefers different methods:
Git Submodule (for project):
git submodule add https://github.com/SkeneTechnologies/plg-skills.git .cursor/plg-skills
cp -r .cursor/plg-skills/skills/* .cursor/skills/
Manual Download:
- Download repository as ZIP
- Extract to temp location
- Copy
skills/ contents to target
Error Handling
- Clone fails: Check network, verify repository URL, ensure git is installed
- Copy fails: Verify permissions, ensure target directory exists
- Skills not appearing: Check Cursor restart required, verify skill structure (each skill needs
SKILL.md)
Notes
- Skills are plain Markdown files - no compilation needed
- Each skill directory must contain a
SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter
- Installation is immediate - no restart required (but may help with discovery)
- Skills can be updated by re-running installation (will overwrite existing)
