# Install the Project Echo agent skill

> Install a reusable Cursor/agent skill so AI tools can triage feedback, create requests, and draft changelogs via MCP.

You can install Project Echo as a reusable **agent skill**. The skill gives your agent a versioned workflow guide for operating Project Echo safely—instead of relying on ad hoc prompting.

Pair it with [MCP](/api-mcp-and-embed/connect-mcp) so the agent can both **understand** the workflows and **execute** them.

## Install

```bash theme={null}
npx skills add justin-butlion/project-echo-skills --skill project-echo-product-manager
```

After installing, restart your AI tool if it does not pick up the new skill immediately.

## What the skill covers

The `project-echo-product-manager` skill helps your agent:

* Connect the right MCP tools and API permissions
* Analyze and triage feedback requests
* Create requests and internal notes
* Draft **customer-friendly** changelog entries (TipTap JSON, not Markdown)
* Link completed requests to changelog drafts
* Stay within safe limits (drafts only—humans publish in the web app)

## Why use a skill

Without a skill, your agent has to infer Project Echo workflows from scratch each time. With a skill, you give it:

* Stable MCP tool guidance and permission expectations
* Use-case driven checklists (weekly changelog, triage, create request)
* Explicit rules for TipTap bodies and draft-only publishing
* A versioned source of truth you can update as Project Echo evolves

## Before you install

1. Create an API key under **API & MCP** (recommend the **Contributor** preset).
2. Configure MCP with your key id and token — see [Connect MCP](/api-mcp-and-embed/connect-mcp).
3. Install the skill with the command above.
