Integration
Clone once and use the same catalog with Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor.
Reference this repository and instruct agents to read skills/index.json first,
then load the relevant SKILL.md files.
Read skills/index.json first, then open matching skills/<name>/SKILL.md files.
The repository ships .github/copilot-instructions.md, so Copilot can use the
JavaFX skill catalog in any workspace that includes this repo.
.github/copilot-instructions.md points Copilot back to skills/index.json and skills/*/SKILL.md.
Cursor picks up .cursor/rules/javafx-skills.mdc and can route JavaFX prompts
through the catalog automatically.
.cursor/rules/javafx-skills.mdc activates skill selection for JavaFX-related prompts.
