Summary
Adds setup instructions for using n8n skills in Cursor to the plugin README and updates AGENTS.md with a callout for Cursor users pointing to the setup guide.
Cursor doesn't auto-discover plugins from
.claude/plugins/— users need to register the plugin manually in~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json. This documents the fix so both agents and developers can find it.Related Linear tickets, Github issues, and Community forum posts
