Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install bug-root-cause-repair

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 gathers discriminating evidence, tests each hypothesis with an experiment, then repairs the code test-first. It can also review a hotfix. It relies on references for systematic debugging, test-first repair and verification.
