SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Provide a bounded, local external subagent workflow by routing calls to a local Cursor instance via cursor-agent, enabling safe comparison, quick passes, and delegated tasks without embedding Cursor directly into the main agent.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • External subagent orchestration: route and execute Cursor-based prompts as a bounded companion to Codex workflows.
  • Model routing and evaluation: switch between Cursor models and safe defaults for controlled experimentation.
  • Quick handoff and isolation: attach skill guidance and run independent passes without affecting the primary agent.

Quick Start

Invoke the run_cursor_subagent script with a workspace, model, and prompt to begin a bounded external subagent pass.

FAQPage Schema
How do I route local Cursor as an external subagent for Codex workflows?▼

Routing local Cursor as an external subagent involves executing the run_cursor_subagent script with a defined workspace, chosen model, and prompt to process bounded sidecar tasks independently alongside your primary Codex workflows.

What is a bounded external subagent and when do I need one?▼

A bounded external subagent is an isolated local Cursor instance routed via cursor-agent to execute independent prompts, enabling safe model comparison and delegated tasks without affecting your primary Codex workflows.

Do I need cursor-agent available to use local model routing for sidecar tasks?▼

Yes, cursor-agent availability is required. You must also define a workspace, select a model, and specify a mode (plan or ask) to properly execute local model routing for bounded sidecar tasks.

Can I attach skill files to inline guidance for independent evaluation passes?▼

Yes, you can attach optional skill files when invoking the run_cursor_subagent script to inline guidance and execute independent evaluation passes without impacting the primary agent.

What is the best way to switch between Cursor models for controlled experimentation?▼

The best way to switch Cursor models for controlled experimentation is routing calls through a bounded external subagent, applying safe defaults and specified plan or ask modes to isolate evaluation passes.
