Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install cloudwatch-observability-first-setup

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 covers two products: creating a CloudWatch Application Observability (Omni) space, with access and integrations, and onboarding a service to Application Signals. It instruments the app with the ADOT SDK in Python, Node.js, Java or .NET on EC2, ECS, EKS or Lambda, until the first traces arrive.
