Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install github-secret-scanning-setup-2

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 configures secret scanning and push protection, helps unblock a refused push and triages alerts. You get a repository guarded against accidental credentials and a clear procedure for each alert.
