Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install apple-hig-platform-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 compares the constraints of iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, visionOS, watchOS and games, then recommends what changes from one platform to the next. You get a decision framework for a universal app or for porting an existing one.
