Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install gcp-iam-authentication-guidance

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 asks the relevant questions, then distinguishes human identities, service accounts and service agents. It explains how each type of access is authenticated and authorized, including Application Default Credentials. You get an access recommendation suited to your case.
