Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install brownfield-project-documentation

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 goes through the code without modifying it, using read and search tools, then writes a snapshot of the stack, structure, flows and integrations. You get a reliable base for the planning steps that follow.
