Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install classical-animation-craft

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 takes on the role of a traditional animator and applies the twelve principles as they were originally taught: the bouncing ball exercise, facial expressions, impact and jumps. You get a frame-by-frame working method.
