Getting it into your agent
This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00057 | $0.03553 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00023 | $0.01421 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00711 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00355 |
Grade D, and why
cursor-orchestrate scanned grade D with 3 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.
Requires the `cursor-delegate` plugin (this skill ships with it): the Cursor CLI installed (`curl https://cursor.com/install -fsS | bash`) and API keys in `~/.claude-deck/cursor/agent-keys.json` (chmod 600) with a `defau Downloads and executes remote codehighSupply chain
curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 145 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Orchestrate a Cursor fleet (Claude plans, Cursor executes)
Claude stays the brain: it owns architecture, UX/UI and design decisions, the plan, task decomposition, review/acceptance, and final integration. cursor-agent workers do the execution on the Cursor subscription's quota. This is agent calling at scale, not a model-backend swap.
Step 1 — pick the mode
Check the user's words first, then fall back to auto-detect by size:
| Signal | Mode |
|---|---|
| user said "sub" / "subagent" | A-simple: one cursor-worker subagent or a single cursor_run call |
| user said "workflow" / "w" | B: the JS harness (orchestrator.js) |
| ≤ 1 independent slice | A-simple |
| 2–8 independent slices | A-fan-out: several cursor_run calls in parallel |
| > 8 slices, or multi-phase build, or needs retries / worktrees / determinism | B: the JS harness |
State which mode you chose and why in one line.
Step 2 — decompose (Claude's job)
Cut the work into independent vertical slices. Each slice becomes one worker task. Write every task fully self-contained — the worker starts with a blank context and cannot see this conversation:
File paths to touch · the goal · acceptance criteria (how to know it's done) · what NOT to change. Reference the project's conventions by pointing at its
CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md(see Context below), not by re-explaining them.
Bad: "add the auth we discussed." Good: "In src/auth/session.ts, add refresh(token) that returns a new JWT; it must reject tokens whose exp is in the past; add a Vitest in src/auth/session.test.ts covering expired + valid; do not touch src/auth/login.ts."
Step 3 — run it
One rule overrides everything: no single cursor-agent stream may live past ~4 minutes. Flaky networks (VPNs especially) kill streams at ~5-6 minutes — measured, not theoretical. Quick slices (< ~4 min) may use cursor_run; every longer slice runs legged: short legs on one --resumed session until the worker prints DONE-ALL (see the cursor-delegate skill).
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

cursor-orchestrate is a skill published in the GitHub repository smk-labs/claude-plugins (11 stars, last pushed 28d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 57 tokens to every session and 3,553 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (asks for root, downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
