Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install code-explanation-with-diagrams

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 reads the relevant code and its dependencies, then starts with an everyday analogy. It draws an ASCII diagram matched to the shape of the subject, walks through the code step by step and points out a common pitfall. It edits no file.
