Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install brownfield-process-retrospective

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 current state, reconstructs how the code got there, builds a four-axis gap register (thinking, practice, features, technology) and fixes forward. You get a catch-up plan and a closure review.
