Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install coding-standards-from-code-samples

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 goes through the files or folders passed as arguments, infers the style conventions and writes a standards document. Configuration variables control whether it is added to the README and where. You get a document aligned with the real code.
