Support for Agent Plugins is live in @cursor_ai (and I made a plugin for searching X!)
Agent Plugins combine Skills and MCP servers into a single package
Think about them like an Ikea furniture kit: your table comes with instructions, parts, and tools.
You use the instructions to understand how things work (which tools on which parts), then use the tools to assemble your furniture
Agent Plugins are bundles of tools & resources that allow agents to accomplish a goal:
- MCP servers: fixed context and tools
- Skills: dynamic instructions, loaded progressively
Plugins bundle tools and instructions so your agent is able to use tokens efficiently
Many of us already use MCP servers and skills together - Agent Plugins formalize this pattern for more powerful workflows
I'm excited to see where the standard takes us!
Build a plugin once and use it across compatible agent clients.
Introducing Agent Plugins, an open standard developed with @awsdevelopers, @cursor_ai, @github, @code, and @vercel that packages Agent Skills and supports MCP server configurations in a shared format.
We're experimenting with something new.
A tiny wireless AI companion for vibe coding.
• Built-in mic 🎙️
• Wireless
• Scroll wheel
• 3 programmable buttons
Imagine talking to your coding agent without switching windows.
What would you map the 3 buttons to?
