Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install jobs-to-be-done-canvas

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 follows eight steps to build a Jobs to Be Done canvas: who performs the job, in which circumstance, the "When... I want to... so I can..." statement, the three job dimensions, competing solutions and hiring criteria. You get a complete document filled from a template, ready to feed your positioning or sales messages.

Frequently asked questions

Does the skill work on its own?

Yes. It mentions other skills from the same collection (persona, problem statement) as alternatives, but does not depend on them.

What if I have no customer research?

The canvas should rest on real feedback. Without it, the agent flags assumptions and suggests questions to check them.
