Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install macos-window-screenshot-capture

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 finds the target window with a Swift script, then captures it without activating it. If an action is needed (scrolling, zoom, selection), it uses AppleScript after checking that no other session owns the window. You get precise captures suited to documentation.
