What problem does it solve?

Automatically scaffolds a complete Cursor plugin skeleton, including a valid manifest, basic directories, and marketplace wiring, so developers can start coding instantly.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generates a ready-to-use plugin layout with .cursor-plugin/plugin.json, README, LICENSE, and optional CHANGELOG.
  • Creates component placeholders (rules, skills, agents, commands, etc.) based on chosen scope, enabling immediate local development or marketplace submission.
  • Useful for onboarding new plugins into a multi-plugin repository or starting from a clean slate for single-plugin setups.

Quick Start
