Most AI tools now support the Agent Skills standard natively and can use skills/prompt-architect/SKILL.md directly. The adapters in this folder are for the remaining tools that need a reformatted version.
These tools read SKILL.md natively. No adapter needed — just install to their skills directory:
| Tool | Install method |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | npm install -g @ckelsoe/prompt-architect or /plugin marketplace add ckelsoe/prompt-architect |
| ChatGPT | Download prompt-architect.skill → Profile → Skills → Upload |
| Gemini CLI | gemini skills install https://github.com/ckelsoe/prompt-architect.git |
| Cursor | Copy skills/prompt-architect/ to .agents/skills/ or .cursor/skills/ in your project |
| GitHub Copilot | Copy skills/prompt-architect/ to .github/skills/ or ~/.copilot/skills/ |
| OpenAI Codex | Copy skills/prompt-architect/ to .agents/skills/ in your project |
| VS Code | Copy skills/prompt-architect/ to .agents/skills/ in your project |
| Roo Code | Copy skills/prompt-architect/ to .agents/skills/ or ~/.agents/skills/ |
| Kiro, Amp, Junie, Goose, OpenHands, etc. | Copy to ~/.agents/skills/ (universal path) |
Or use the interactive installer to auto-detect and install:
npx @ckelsoe/prompt-architectWindsurf does not yet support Agent Skills natively. Use the adapter file:
# New file
cp adapters/for-windsurf.md ./.windsurfrules
# Or append to existing
cat adapters/for-windsurf.md >> ./.windsurfrulesUse system-prompt.md as your system prompt. Works with OpenAI API, Anthropic API, Google Gemini API, or any tool with a system prompt / custom instructions field.

- Paste into the "Instructions" field
- Name it "Prompt Architect" and save
| File | Use with |

Windsurf editor (.windsurfrules format) |
In v2.x, this folder contained adapters for Cursor, GitHub Copilot, OpenAI Codex, and Gemini CLI. All of these tools have since adopted the Agent Skills standard and now read SKILL.md natively. The old adapter files were:
for-cursor.mdc→ Cursor now scans.cursor/skills/and.agents/skills/for-github-copilot.md→ Copilot now scans.github/skills/and~/.copilot/skills/for-openai-codex-cli.md→ Codex now scans.agents/skills/for-gemini-cli.md→ Gemini CLI scans~/.gemini/skills/and~/.agents/skills/
If you need these for legacy setups, check the v2.1.4 release.
