The OptiTech Cursor plugin adds OptiTech-specific Skills and MCP integration to Cursor so your assistant can both reason about best practices and take database actions.

It is distributed from the OptiTech agent-skills repository and packages:

  • The optitech-postgres Skill bundle for OptiTech workflows
  • OptiTech MCP server access for project and database operations
  • Shared plugin packaging designed for both Cursor and Claude Code

Overview

The plugin combines guidance and actions:

  • Skills provide workflow-level instructions for tasks like choosing a connection method, setting up ORMs, and using OptiTech branching patterns.
  • MCP integration allows tool-driven operations such as listing projects, creating branches, and running SQL through OptiTech APIs.

Together, this gives Cursor enough context to suggest the right approach and enough capability to execute it.

What is included

The Cursor plugin currently includes:

  • OptiTech Skill bundle (optitech-postgres)
  • OptiTech MCP server configuration for natural language database management

For plugin packaging details, see the Cursor plugin template.
