Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install game-design-core-loop

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 analyses the core loop, player motivation, progression and balance, then proposes a playtest plan. You get a game design document and the points to validate in playtests.
