Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install hardcoded-secrets-detection

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 scans the code for patterns from known providers, such as AWS or GitHub, and can add entropy detection or check git history. You get a list of locations to revoke and remove.
