Summary

The Cursor section currently says auto-discovery just works when the repo is cloned. In practice some users hit cases where it doesn't (see #172), and the workaround only lives in an issue comment.

This PR adds one sentence to the Cursor section documenting the community-reported fallback: open Cursor Settings → Plugins, paste the repo URL, and add it from there.

Files changed

  • README.md — 2 added lines in the Cursor install section, no other changes.

Test plan

  • Markdown renders correctly
  • Wording matches the workaround described in the issue thread

Closes #172

… fails

Several users have reported that cloning the repo and opening it in Cursor
doesn't always trigger auto-discovery of the .cursor-plugin manifest. Add
the community-reported workaround (Cursor Settings → Plugins, paste repo
URL) to the Cursor section so it isn't only discoverable from issue
threads.

Closes Lum1104#172

@Lum1104 friendly ping when convenient — small README note documenting the Cursor manual-install fallback for when auto-discovery fails. Happy to rework the wording or trim if it feels too much. Thanks!

…MEs (#172)

PR #199 documented the community-reported Cursor Settings → Plugins
workaround in README.md only; the seven READMEs/* locale files still
said auto-discovery always works. Mirror that fallback here so non-English
readers hit the same fix without hunting issue #172.

The manual install instructions do not work for me. Pasting the repo URL into the search box just results in a No Result message

Same here - followed the instructions but it doesn't work.

Why my Cursor can't discover this plugin automatically ?
