        "antigravity-skills",
        "install"

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Restart after saving.

    "antigravity-awesome-skills": {
      "command": "npx",

Cursor uses the same mcpServers schema as Claude Desktop. Project config wins over global.

    "antigravity-awesome-skills": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

Click the MCP Servers icon in the Cline sidebar, then "Edit Configuration".

Same shape as Claude Desktop. Restart Windsurf to pick up changes.

Continue uses an array of server objects rather than a map.

Add to context_servers. Zed hot-reloads on save.

Use Cases

Real-world ways to use Antigravity Awesome Skills

Bootstrap a frontend engineer's coding-agent setup in 1 command

👤 New job, new laptop, or new project ⏱ ~15 min beginner

When to use: You want a sensible default toolkit, not 6 hours of reading individual READMEs.

Prerequisites

CLI installed — npm i -g antigravity-skills

Flow

List bundles

List bundles related to frontend engineering.✓ Copied

→ 5–10 bundles with skill counts
Install

Install the 'frontend-pro' bundle to Claude Code only. Don't touch my Cursor config.✓ Copied

→ Skills installed under ~/.claude/skills/; Cursor untouched
Smoke test

List skills now available to Claude Code. Pick one and run it on a sample component.✓ Copied

→ Skill list shows new entries; sample run succeeds

Outcome: A modern frontend agent kit with one command.

Pitfalls

Bundle includes a skill you don't want — Use --exclude <skill> or install individual skills

Find and install one specific skill across all your agents

👤 Devs who already have a setup but want to add capability ⏱ ~5 min beginner

When to use: Someone mentions a skill on Twitter; you want it across Claude + Cursor.

Flow

Search

Search the catalog for skills tagged 'security' and 'web'.✓ Copied

→ Filtered list with descriptions and stars
Install everywhere

Install 'web-security-review' to Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.✓ Copied

→ Three install paths confirmed

Outcome: Same skill, all agents.

Pitfalls

Skill format differs slightly per agent — CLI handles transformation; if it can't, it'll skip with a warning

Keep installed skills up to date

👤 Anyone with skills installed ⏱ ~10 min beginner

When to use: You haven't updated in a few weeks; some skills moved on.

Flow

Update all

Update every installed skill across all agents.✓ Copied

→ Per-skill diff summary; failures listed
Review changes

Show me the changelog for any skill that bumped major version.✓ Copied

→ Major-version notes summarized

Outcome: Skill set current; surprises identified before they bite.

Pitfalls

A skill upstream moved or was removed — CLI marks orphaned skills; uninstall manually

Combinations

Pair with other MCPs for X10 leverage

antigravity-awesome-skills + addyosmani-agent-skills

Layer Addy's curated set on top of the broader catalog

Install Addy's skill bundle, then add 3 specific community ones from the catalog.✓ Copied

antigravity-awesome-skills + github

Track which skills your team uses in a repo

Export the installed-skills list and commit it to /docs/skills.lock.✓ Copied

Tools

What this MCP exposes

Tool	Inputs	When to call
search	query, tags?	Discover
install	name_or_bundle, agents[]	Add capability
update	scope: 'all'\|'agent'\|'skill'	Maintenance
list	agent?	Check current state

Cost & Limits

What this costs to run

API quota: N/A
Tokens per call: 0 — installation is local
Monetary: Free
Tip: Don't install everything; pick bundles that match how you actually work

Security

Permissions, secrets, blast radius

Minimum scopes: filesystem-write

Credential storage: None

Data egress: Skill repos pulled from GitHub at install time only

Aggregator can't audit every skill — review what gets installed if you're uncertain about a publisher

Troubleshooting

Common errors and fixes

install fails: agent path not found

Ensure the agent is installed and has been launched at least once

Verify: Folder exists at ~/.claude/skills (or equivalent)

Network error pulling skill

GitHub rate-limit; set GITHUB_TOKEN env var

Skill conflicts with one already installed

Use --force only after reviewing — duplicates can cause silent shadowing

Alternatives

Antigravity Awesome Skills vs others

Alternative	When to use it instead	Tradeoff
ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills	You want a curated 'best of' rather than the full catalog	Smaller list; less coverage
Manual git clone	You only want one skill	No update path
