Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install azure-security-control-taxonomy

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 uses the MCSB control-domain structure and its crosswalk to NIST SP 800-53 and CIS Controls to frame an Azure architecture or security review. You get a shared control vocabulary and the domains to cover, without the per-service baselines.
