Reset a stuck Cursor ACP thread in your chat app and reload its configuration. Use only when the user explicitly invokes /reset-cursor-acp.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Reset Cursor ACP in your chat app For terminal sessions use `cursor-cli`; for general app control use `<app-cli>`. ## How resets work - The app's ACP integration starts one `cursor-agent acp` subprocess per thread, on demand. - There is no global Cursor ACP server. Do not create one or keep it alive with a watchdog. - Rules, skills, and `.cursor/mcp.json` reload when a new subprocess starts. - Use the app's thread-stop command with the thread ID to release the runtime and stop its subprocess while preserving history. The next message starts a fresh agent. ## Quick reset Resolve `<reset-script>` relative to this `SKILL.md`. Run: ```bash <reset-script> <thread-id> # reset one Cursor thread <reset-script> --self # reset the current thread <reset-script> # no thread: orphan cleanup + health check only <reset-script> --dry-run # show what would happen <reset-script> <id> --kill-all # also kill live agents of OTHER Cursor threads ``` Find Cursor thread IDs using the app's status or thread-list command. …

How to install
mdr add davidondrej/skills/reset-cursor-acp@sha256:36eff04455b7cc6bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261018.eaed515, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
