Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install linux-kernel-tracing-debugging

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 explains how to trace kernel functions with ftrace and trace-cmd, place kprobes, enable dyndbg, debug with kgdb and analyse a vmcore after a crash. It helps choose the tool that fits the symptom.
