SKILL.md

Host commands: In Cursor desktop and Cursor terminal, invoke the same shared skills as /begin, /connect, /status, and /next-lesson (choose Altitude in the skill picker when names collide). Translate /altitude:<skill> examples in this file to /<skill> in Cursor; Claude Code keeps /altitude:<skill> and Codex keeps $<skill>.

Copilot host commands: In GitHub Copilot CLI and VS Code Copilot chat, use the same shared Altitude skills. Choose the Altitude skill by name in the host skill picker (connect, begin, next-lesson, or status); use the invocation spelling that host displays. Do not copy these files into a second Copilot-only skill library. The complete Altitude plugin supplies the lesson hooks; copied skills alone provide only the standalone free method.

Connect the current coding agent installation to Altitude:

Cursor preparation, including already-paired installations: before plugin setup or pairing, have the learner run altitude update in their own terminal and wait for it to finish. If altitude is missing, use npm install -g @learnaltitude/cli instead. Then read altitude --version from the same environment that will run pairing. Older CLIs do not recognize --agent cursor; a plugin update alone cannot add that identity. If the installed CLI still rejects Cursor after updating, keep the existing pairing/binding/progress and report that this CLI does not support Cursor yet; never re-run pairing without --agent or with another agent's identity. A successful update is not proof that a lesson passed acceptance.
