Details
From the project READMEHost 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.
Run altitude status and summarize its output. If it reports that the device is disconnected,
tell the user to run the connect skill (/altitude:connect in Claude Code, $connect in Codex, /connect in Cursor, Altitude's connect skill in Copilot).
