Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install ffmpeg-transcoding-fundamentals

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 writes basic FFmpeg commands: format conversion, codec choice, quality control with CRF or bitrate, simple filters and checks with ffprobe. You get ready-to-run commands and Whisper transcription examples.
