Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install codebase-onboarding-map

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 explores the repository in a set order: purpose and users, commands to run it, structure, modules, data flow and risky areas. Every claim points to a file it read. You get a map of a few pages that a newcomer can follow.
