Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install fix-janky-animation-performance

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 identifies the animated property and the thread that runs the motion, compares CSS, WAAPI and requestAnimationFrame, then fixes common traps such as React re-rendering every frame or overusing will-change. It does not choose easing curves.
