Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install abstract-strategy-game-design

With no option, the skill goes to ~/.agents/skills/; add --agent claude-code (or codex, cursor…) to target an agent.

First time: connect the CLI with

npx --yes palatekit@latest login

The agent starts from the definition of an abstract game (perfect information, no randomness, minimal theme) and helps you choose the game type, board topology, piece systems, movement and victory conditions. You get a rules base and a balance assessment.
