Agent Skills

Single source of truth for skills assigned to each agent in .cursor/agents/.
Index version: 2026-02-19
Authority: Court ruling 2026-DEL-004 (full session: skills to add to each agent)

When updating skills or sources, update this index and bump the version/date. Each agent file references this document (§ agent name) and does not duplicate skill text.

Individual skill documents: One .md file per skill lives under agents/skills/ (e.g. agents/skills/morningstar-state-read-write.md). See agents/skills/README.md for the full list.
