Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install go-context-propagation

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 checks context propagation across layers, from the HTTP handler down to databases and external APIs. It fixes mishandled deadlines and cancellations, chooses between Background, TODO and WithoutCancel for background work, and warns against storing values in the context. You get code that cancels operations properly.
