Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install api-misuse-footgun-review

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 examines an interface, configuration or schema and asks whether the easy path leads to a vulnerability. It relies on references by language and by domain, such as authentication, cryptography and configuration. You get a list of pitfalls with safer default proposals.
