Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install graceful-degradation-fallback-messages

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 at the start whether the optional service responds, caches the result for the session and shows a message saying what is missing, which features are reduced and how to enable the service. You avoid a silent failure.
