Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install dark-pattern-code-audit

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 scans your code and copy without running the application, then flags deceptive patterns: pricing, subscriptions, consent, modal windows and preselected options. Each case gets a confidence level, its location in the code and an official reference.
