Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install existing-skill-search

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 searches your local skills, marketplaces, GitHub and the web, then vets external results before proposing them. It ranks the options and lets you choose: adopt, adapt or create. You avoid rebuilding work that is already published.
